What’s Your Favorite Flavor Profile?

Was talking with Mrs3969 about this earlier. Seems we really gravitate to the Asian flavor profile more than anything. Just about everything we make has Sambal Oelek,fish sauce, soy or Sriracha in it some way.  

What flavor profile do you gravitate to?

    Remember I am a sailor so with that I will defer (with one comment) for the sake of forum decorum.  Suffice to say "live and in colour wins every time."  B)

    Hot. It has to have heat. Most of my cooks anyway.

  • All of them. Don’t have a favourite. It’s the ability to enjoy one profile one night and another the next that does it for me. 

    We were looking to order takeout the other night and, on a whim, ordered Jamaican. My wife was at first skeptical but became an absolute believer upon the first bite. 

    Say what you want about the perils of globalization, but a distinct advantage is the access we now enjoy to a variety of foreign foods and flavours. We are in an unprecedented period of exoticism in food.

    Sweet.  Since Covid kicked in, I’ve been a little too cavalier with sugary stuff.  I realized I had an issue when I started looking for dessert after breakfast.  

    I’m up to an A-cup.  👎🏻
