If your dish tastes “okay but something is missing”… it’s usually one of three things:
1️⃣ Salt
2️⃣ Acid
3️⃣ You pretending nothing is wrong
Seriously though — before adding anything fancy, try this:
• Add a tiny pinch of salt
• Or a splash of lemon/vinegar
• Or both (carefully, not like your ex seasoning food)
You’ll be shocked how often this magically fixes the entire dish.
Chefs use this trick 100 times a day — it’s basically culinary cheating.
Now go revive that sad soup or confused curry.
Your taste buds deserve better. 😄
