From the original post from September 2012, Taste & Money Part I: Confess-Shuns. We are at the thick of things in this 2014 - 2015 eating season, which runs from Late September (apple-picking) to February (Valentine's Day). Does anyone have an MVP - Most Valuable Plate yet?
My MVP is cornbread and cookies so far. I know...plenty of energy to expend!
The eating season is the most important time for taste. It is a feasting time period. If your dish does not have taste, then please reserve it for you and your family one separate days. However, if your dish has too much taste, then you are cheating in the kitchen. Too much taste means too much of one or two ingredients like butter, sugar, and salt. Some Food Network experts may not be as happy since butter, sugar, and salt can be substituted.
Money is the best thing that taste can buy! Yes, you could be buying a plethora of taste enhancements. However, the true seasonings could be in your kitchen already. What about mixing juices that flow from meat in a vegetable medley dish? What about fruit dishes that make salads taste good? How about the good ole carb, vegetable, and meat mixed dish? What about the high fiber dish with natural juices from other foods that tend to spice up blandness?
In short, hopefully you are getting yourself in position for a fit, healthy, and healthy fun 2015 because it is less than one month away! Right now, in writing this message, it is December 2nd. Do you know where your energy and muscles are?
Make the best dishes that does your body good!
With heart,
Derek
