PlurkRani
I just experienced a personal revelation.
PlurkRani
I like food that has a lot of flavor.
PlurkRani
That's all.
cat
awesome!!
PlurkRani
IKR!
cat

PlurkRani
I'm on the path of personal growth!

I like chutney, korma, vindaloo, roganjosh, jalfrezzi, all kinds of biryanis and curries.
PlurkRani
I like potent cuisines like Mexican and Indian and Thai and Korean and Chinese and Japanese and Italian and Levantine.
PlurkRani
Breakfast foods are often dense with flavor and I like dense flavors so I like most breakfast foods
PlurkRani
I like flavors that wake me the hell up!
PlurkRani
I like flavors that assault my tongue like a red-hot cheese grinder!
PlurkRani
I like foods that I can taste from twenty feet away!
PlurkRani
I like foods that interfere with my radio reception!
PlurkRani
None of that church-basement cuisine for me. Bring on the salt-and-pepper and the cayenne and the Old Bay and the vinegar and the turmeric and the cumin and the chilies and ginger! Bring on the Tabasco and the Sriracha!
PlurkRani
I intend to employ my taste buds to their fullest potential.

You are a traitor to your race, Polly!

Also: same!
PlurkRani
You better believe it! No bangers and mash, no porridge, no boiled vegetable mush, no mashed potatoes...
PlurkRani
Spices were treated with suspicion in early American cuisine right up to the latter half of the twentieth century.
PlurkRani
Spices were the Devil's work!
PlurkRani
Imagine being burned at the stake in Salem for cooking with coriander.
OhCecilia
PlurkRani : have you ever had Persian food?
PlurkRani
Not that I can recall.
PlurkRani
Does it pack a punch?
PlurkRani
Because, just to be clear: I like food that's like sucking on a flamethrower.
PlurkRani
Prue OMG that sketch is awesome!
Luke Skywanker
this is a good revelation. I'm the opposite.
PlurkRani
Luke Skywanker You just like water-flavored ice chips!
Luke Skywanker
Exactly.
Prue
Orders the scampi for Luke
Kalli (& Tibbs)
I may have to share a few recipes
Luke Skywanker
Everything is too much flavor (or texture) for me
PlurkRani
I never thought of scampi as bland but I guess it could be
OhCecilia
PlurkRani : it’s flavorful but not much heat, that’s why I was wondering. Some crossover with Indian flavors but not as much heat. Like both use lots of tumeric, both do lots of rice dishes with basmati rice and saffron, etc.
PlurkRani
I'm okay with less heat. There are other flavors!
PlurkRani
And Persian sounds like a winner to me.
PlurkRani
Sign me up for Persian!

the first half of this plurk reads like it should be a picture book

I'd make a meal and a half out of that menu!

I am right there with ya! Encountering midwest staples where salt and pepper are primary season is sort of weird. Hooray for our melting pot culture.

This is my obsession of the moment. Soooo much flavor. Lentil/Turmeric crackers are a top pick for Cooking ...
Maudeline
I've had to curb my spice enthusiasm (thanks, food allergies), but I am likewise anti-bland.
PlurkRani
Oooh, lentil/turmeric crackers...
PlurkRani
Maudeline Get thee to an allergist!
Maudeline
PlurkRani : I need to! Or at least convince my doc that I need a thorough allergy test so I know what the real problem is.
LotusCeriano
oh Persian is good, but it is super labour intensive, I made some Persian rice that took as much time almost as qualifying as a doctor.
LotusCeriano
so the best plan is get someone else to do it
PlurkRani
Who will cook Persian for me??
Gingo!
There was a fairly large Persian community in 2 of the last 3 places I lived. I got to love Persian food, but up here it's impossible to find and, as LotusCeriano said, a real labor-intensive job to cook
Gingo!
As I was frequently the only American at Persian gatherings in both Encino, California and Knoxville, Tennessee, I got a bottom portion of Tahdig, a real honor

LotusCeriano
this Plurk inspired me to buy this book https://images.plurk.com/2Kskx6CpcuPFEuYcOI9zSS.jpg as a birthday pressie for by husband, who hopefully will do the cooking
PlurkRani
That tahdig looks amazing!
PlurkRani
And inspiring someone to buy a book -- what higher purpose is there?
Gingo!
I'm as humbled as it is possible for me to be

Seen on Amazon: Albert Adrià and José Andrés create four hands the most gastronomic Torrons Vicens nougat, the Cherry Times nougat. Made from a cherry ganache with pecan nut praline, crispy rice and Ras el Hanout toffee. A palette of flavours masterfully combined with a spectacular result.
