It's almost like a cheat code to make almost anything taste better!
But I also I don't understand people who think that it literally is cheating and shouldn't be used because of that. If msg is cheating, salt is also cheating.
For me, msg has become almost as important "tool" in the kitchen as salt.
The holy trinity 🤤.
My understanding of "cheating" when it comes to cooking is that you're becoming reliant on something that might be/become difficult to get ahold of. Pure salt is ubiquitous in western cuisine, so most would feel comfortable relying on it. That's not the case with MSG.
Well if people won't use it because it's "cheating". Then it'll never make it to bw ubiquitious next to salt, like it imo deserves to be.
