Eggs for me.

If we're talking non meat then onion, spinach, pumpkin, tofu and taro.

No mention of garlic?

Any of the spices in five spice powder, or said powder.

Soy sauce.

Tomatoes.

[-] GeekFTW@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Garlic 100%.

Always have garlic powder and 3-6 heads of garlic in my kitchen and I am not above roasting a couple of them heads at a moments notice so I can toss roasted garlic into anything.

My wife hates me lol

Garlic is the only answer for me. I double the garlic quantity in any recipe that calls for it. It's just so good

[-] FishInABarrel@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

When I started cooking, I thought a "clove" was the whole head of garlic. It tasted about right to me. XD

"Garlic is not measured with spoons but with the heart"

Someone once posted that on reddit, I believe it.

[-] GeekFTW@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Same goes with vanilla. Oh 1 teaspoon? Cool tablespoon it is lfg!

Garlic and onions. Any onions is good onions.

[-] GeekFTW@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I like every month or two buying a pound of onions, run em over the mandolin and spend an afternoon doing a nice slow caramelize on em. Reduce em down to a cup or so of dark brown amazingness, toss it in the fridge and add into a bunch of food just like I do roasted garlic.

Hot peppers. Whether it's jalapeno, cayenne, habanero, Thai chilis, ghost pepper, or even the milder ones like banana peppers, they're all great. :D

[-] BowflexPeloton@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

One of the most overlooked imo as the taste is subtle. But adding it gives such a homely warm feel to a dish.

@Niello Garlic without question, then tomato.

[-] HubertManne@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

plus one for eggs.

[-] Alexmitter@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago
  1. Noodles, especially spaghetti.
  2. Eggplants, especially grilled.
  3. Cheese, especially aged or blue mold cheeses.
[-] Horik@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Preserved lemon. It's pickled, fermented lemon. Discovered it in Moroccan dishes, and it is heavenly.

For baking, cinnamon.

For meals, I find the key to good vegetarian food is tomatoes.

[-] Usernameblankface@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Meat, specifically beef.

[-] Warped@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Really hard, but possibly paprika or maybe garlic?

Butternut squash and spinach are also popular.

Any cheese. Stilton, feta or Stinky Bishop.

[-] borzoiteeth@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

It's a tie between garlic, basil, lemon, rice and pork.

[-] WackyIdeas@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Lately, deep fried capers.

[-] Lianrepl@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Sriracha. I put it on pretty much anything

[-] metaStatic@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

look at Mr Moneybags over here able to afford Sriracha

[-] Tigbitties@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I could probably put chilly powder on anything but my wife would hate me.

These days it’s probably turmeric, even though that isn’t very exciting. I’m having trouble thinking of a dish I wouldn’t put it in under any circumstances.

[-] WytchStar@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Salt. I love a lot of foods, but you gotta have the right amount of salt on all of em

[-] metaStatic@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Cardamon is highly underrated

Artichoke similarly underrated

Sun dried tomatoes ... everyone knows this is S tier

[-] AttackBunny@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

How has no one said potatoes, or rice yet? They are both so incredibly versatile.

Personally, it’s potato. A large amount of cuisines use them and in wildly different ways sometimes.

[-] Nepenthe@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Favorite in terms of "food with X in it," or favorite in terms of adding it? Because if it's the first one, it turns out I love me some damn onions something fierce. If it's just "which ingredient do you enjoy adding," eggs every time. So satisfying.

I clicked this hoping it would feature a specific person and I was not disappointed.
