American here. I mostly only use salt these days in brines and lacto ferments. Though of course when I'm grilling a steak I use salt and pepper. Though desu I know I'm missing out on aromatics... What are some good examples of good herb seasonings for a grilled steak?

largely no. it's a midwestern thing and probably due to the prevalence of TAS2R38+ genetics in the region.

How do you get this shit? It's fairly overpriced to get fresh at the store, and it ends up moldy because I don't use it fast enough. I would grow it myself but where I live it randomly snows and hails in the middle of the fucking summer so that's not an option...

Yes. Salt & Pepper. The reason why we do this is so that we taste the ingredients themselves instead of the spices. Arguably, this makes for repetitively bland dishes and we should make an effort to mix it up with other spices. This is a very reasonable argument to make.

>> No.13873450

One problem with "flyover cooking" is that we have forgotten how common adding fruit to spice dishes was in Europe. Stuff like juniper berries, currants, etc. I add stuff like blackberries to pork, or glazed citrus to fish and people really like it. It just seems like most people don't think about it. Acidity in general is really underrated in home cooking.

>> No.13873525

>>13870644
Gee anon why could southern food possibly resemble soul food? It couldnt be the fact that blacks were a large portion of the south before the civil war could it? Obviously there were european influences but to deny black people were a large contributor to the cuisine is disingenuous or wrong and I suspect youre hesitant to give black people credit for anything. And since Im pretty youre a /pol/cel who hates foreign things Im going to let you believe how you do about your statement of african cuisine until you have some good Ethiopian or cameroonian food
