Cooks: What is a simple ingredient or method that makes your recipes a whole lot tastier?

1 Answer

Answer :

a little bit of cream in eggs instead of milk… salt all meats a little (a lot if it’s in the crockpot)... um… I don’t really get adventurous so that’s all I’ve got. lol Oh, and my biggest trick is with my potato salad. Grind the onion into a pulp, very few (if any) chunks. That way get the great onion flavor distributed evenly without a chunk of onion flavor with an odd texture that doesn’t fit the smooth potato/egg combo.
