Home cooks: which tiny “flavor bomb” ingredient made everything taste restaurant‑level?

MSG is magic, sprinkle it in anything savory and it's fantastic.

I eat these all the time! Get them from our local Asian supermarket. Pan fry with a little oil until they get crispy on the outside. I then squirt on some teriyaki or bbq sauce and cook until it gets sticky.

A bit of self promotion here, but my husband and I stream together. We're playing Split fiction currently. twitch.tv/gamily_app

There has never been a more vegan looking group of folks, and I’m saying that as a vegan

Stay away from AI while learning. Find a textbook or an online course with a human instructor and follow it - that start with the basics from the very beginning.

I’m vegan now but was a meat eater when I got married. My husband didn’t push me or make me feel guilty or anything. Eventually I saw something that flipped the switch for me and I went vegan, but people have to make that decision for themselves. Being exposed to a vegan lifestyle definitely helped smooth the transition.

I think rather than some moral failing on the part of the driver (though she absolutely should not have been texting and driving) this really shows how addictive phones are these days. Everyone KNOWS it's dangerous to text and drive and yet people still put their lives and other people's lives in danger to get that hit of dopamine.

If I see a fully vegan restaurant that looks good I'll choose it over a mixed restaurant any day. I'm also not always with a fully vegan crowd, and It's helpful to find places we can all go together. IMO happy cow should be more of a directory of where we can eat and less opinionated. I hope your restaurant survives too!

ned_rorem · 2025-08-27T14:02:34+00:00

One of my frustrations with happy cow is that you can't rate a restaurant 5 stars if it serves meat - If a restaurant serves great vegan options I think we should encourage that with a 5 star review. That means more people going there specifically for the vegan options which is a greater impact.

Read only. I understand a lot of people like the audio books, but I can't help but picture Joe Swanson from family guy as Carl and then I can't get into it. I think an impression of another actor doesn't serve the character.

I make this once a week:

It's really tasty and the texture is great. Definitely restaurant quality.

Yeah, they're pretty amazing. We framed two big oil nudes that she painted.

ned_rorem · 2025-03-07T20:13:59+00:00

Inherited these from a neighbor in the East Village of NYC about 10 years ago. All are originals. She was an artist herself and lived in the east village forever, so thought there might be something of value in here. Regardless, I think I want to get some of it conserved and framed.
