I'll start: pesto as a bagel topping.

Rice porridge with milk instead of water. It’s a thing where my parents are from but I’ve never heard of anyone else having it before. It goes great with nuts. I prefer bbq flavoured peanuts, but anything sweet and salty will work.

Boiling up pasta water, throwing in the pasta and pre-cooked meatballs, then letting it cook until the pasta is done.

I will not-unhappily reheat and eat unrefrigerated two-day-old pizza. But I have the world's lowest standards for food.

Creamy polenta with head cheese. Yes, the head cheese melts. And yes, it's delicious.

A dash of yogurt in instant noodles (specifically Indomie). Also, pesto on bagel is indeed reaaaally good. Especially if you add cream cheese, a fried egg, some spinach and make a kind of sandwich out if it.

Oh wow. 9th year my family’s church sponsored a first generation Eastern European-to-our-shakiest m smallish town, USA made Campbells chicken noodle soup for her daughter and me, added plain old Breakstone’s sc or something and I’ll still do it to this day when pressed.

Eating a lot of foods with Carolina Reaper or Ghost Pepper. I have carolina reaper infused sauce, salt shaker, chunky shaker, and whole pods and I would mix them with steak, pork chop, ramen, and so forth. I just like how it enhance the taste in different ways, not for everyone though.

I mix Coke and Orange Juice to wake up in the morning sometimes. My wife that dips steak in ranch dressing and friend that eats peanut butter and ham sandwiches hate it.

[–] glomag@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I can see how Coke and OJ could work. Although, I like to mix Coke and eggnog during the holidays so maybe I'm not the most trustworthy source on this topic. Also espresso and root beer on ice is quite good.

I used to do that back in the day (Coke & OJ), but both are so revoltingly sweet now I can’t do it anymore. If there was a cola-flavored sparkling water, I’d give that a shot.

OJ (or apple juice) with vanilla oatmilk is pretty amazing though. Just not in large quantities.

My mom grew up poor and in the south, and one of her comfort "poverty foods" is a bologna and peanut butter sandwich. They're delicious.

Another one that's really good is Ritz crackers in milk.

My girlfriend and her entire family think I'm an alien for drinking milk whenever I have popcorn. It doesn't even register as a strange combination to me. I think they're very complementary flavors.

Especially cumquats

I've been experimenting with hummus on stuff. My favorite do far was using it in place of salad dressing with some vinaigrette.

[–] callyral@readit.buzz 1 points 2 years ago

microwaved cookies (they're better warm)
