What’s something you add to (most of) your dishes that gives it a signature taste or a special kick?
I like to throw a pinch of chicken bouillon in a lot of different dishes, sometimes in lieu of salt or in addition to. The bouillon I use also has onion, garlic, and paprika so it gives everything a subtle but welcome kick.


This.
Bought a big thing of msg, but it in a salt shaker, add it to any savory dish and it’s amazing.
Also theres no good evidence that MSG has any ill effects. One doctor wrote into a magazine once saying he got a headache after binging on Chinese food and thought that maybe MSG was the reason and a huge panic happened.
