What's your secret ingredient that makes your version of a common dish better than anyone else's? (lemmy.world)

Mine probably isn't that secret these days, but almost every sauce I add nutritional yeast to. Curry, chilli, bolognese, it just makes them all better.

I suppose at least vegan cheese is getting much better

I had a vegan cheese charcuterie board last summer and it was a delightful thing.

Its okay but expensive or ugly.

You can hack it for various purposes from normal ingredients

Ugly? Dairy cheese ain't exactly handsome.

Like full of aroma. But vegan cheese is always less ick than cow milk with antibiotics, pus and more.

There literally is a max amount of pus allowed in milk, for a reason.
