  • I used to cook super bland food and eventually started just tossing whatever seems good into the recipe while cooking. It usually works out somehow, especially with garlic and onion. Even something as simple as a half teaspoon of dried onion in a cheapo ramen pack does wonders for the flavor. I decided to try coating a burger in fresh diced onion while pan cooking (hate grill flavor sue me) and then scraping it off after and it adds a nice touch without being overwhelming. A splash of Worcestershire sauce into most anything involving teriyaki.

    Oh VANILLA EXTRACT IN PANCAKES. If you haven’t done that yet you are missing out. That’s not really a wild invention but surprisingly few people I know have done it.

    On a different note, I ended up taking a job completely unrelated to my comp sci degree. Always felt weird about it, but looking at coding job prospects now, I feel like I dodged a massive bullet.
