#wtf #i mean #you can also taste your food while you're cooking it? #i feel like everything should at least have salt and pepper #even if you're spinning the wheel for the other spices (via @el-oh-el-oh-el)
ah, see, if my mom is tasting while cooking, that means she couldn't make up her mind and we're about to try every seasoning in the house at once.
she does start with a base, but not salt. she uses pepper and garlic powder. she didn't want me growing up reliant on salt so she pointed me in the opposite direction. and it worked! i'm reliant on garlic powder.
my mom used our old spice rack like it was a roulette wheel. she'd spin the rack, grab a jar, give a sniff, and if it appeased her, she'd start sprinkling until i can only assume god or ancestors made her stop. she would repeat the process until she got bored.
i know this was her method bc whenever we'd compliment dinner, she'd go, "yeah, i wish i knew what i put in it this time!"
#that first bit is only half serious#she does sometimes taste her food#it's just not a FIX so much as it's confirmation on whether or not she should keep gambling#like re: the spicy chicken - she didn't even know the chicken was spicy until after we all ate and everyone else said smthn#it was totally fine to her lmao#gt talks
