Half regular spaghetti half protein spaghetti. Earth Balance soy-free vegan butter. Carrot baby food for the sauce. Giorgio sliced mushrooms.

It's pretty bland (although the mushrooms are amazing omg).

I have A LOT of food sensitivities, am poor, and have limited energy due to my health issues, so I just experiment with random stuff. I know it probably doesn't seem like much of an experiment but I'll probably try different things as I go along.

Pray it doesn't kill me :3

A close up of spaghetti and mushrooms. There's a small amount of orange sauce. A white plastic fork can be seen.

Throwing around MSG with black pepper as though white pepper isn't already the perfect pairing.

But for serious, with its earthy flavor, you might find that it compliments the mushrooms a little more. It's also already husked, so taking out some of that peppery bite helps the other flavors in the dish shine just a little more.

More to OP's benefit, the way that white pepper is processed sometimes makes it a better alternative for sensitive tummies.

    I've taken to using half black pepper, half white pepper when I make sausages (I'm a retail butcher) and the results are excellent. I can't stand the smell of white pepper, it reminds me of urine, but flsvour-wise it's more than welcome in my orchestra.

    Oh! I can totally see someone thinking it smells like urine! I think the best ones smell like South Asian armpits before you cook the pepper. My father-in-law bought me some pre-ground in Malaysia, and I swear I thought he brought me some prank stink powder. That shit made the BEST hot and sour soup, though!
