...Other than salt and pepper

For me it's cumin. It's one of the few spices I buy in bulk and actually use up my supply.

In the winter it may lean towards cardamom thanks to copious amounts of chia.

Garlic by far. Salt, Pepper, Garlic.

After that I use quite a bit of cumin

    For me it is part of the base meal: smash and dice garlic, turn on the stovetop, dice an onion and start it frying, add garlic, figure out what else to put in the pan.

    okay you're the fifth person i've met besides me who (if we're not at the grill) cooks like that my wife wants to know if you'd like to marry us. that way we'd only each have to cook twice a week except saturday when we all cook.

    i like to joke around about tagging, but is there a way to really do it? because that's a great tag for me

    Oh, I didn't think of that. It depends on the server. I don't think lemmy servers support tagging, but piefed servers do. Such tags are only displayed to the person making the tag. Piefed servers have issues with displaying post text from the main display and with previewing comments directly under a post, but they display image posts inline ... in a buggy kinda way.

    If I'm looking for news, I use my lemmy account. If I'm looking for tv/movie stuff, I use piefed ... and also get to tag people :-)

    Roasted garlic is good just plain. It makes a pretty good side dish.

    I'll be honest though, I'll just eat it raw sometimes. I think something is broken with me. I can eat raw garlic and can happily just bite into an onion like an apple (though I can't eat the whole thing).

    I'm guessing that's a genetic thing -- like how some people are 'super-tasters' that can't stand broccoli, I think some people can handle it better than others. For myself, I'd guess I only have 1/2 the trait because I love it roasted, but can't take too much raw.
