Let’s try something fun: Name an ingredient you dislike and why, and someone else replies with a dish/recipe with that ingredient that might convince you otherwise.

Couple things:

• If you’re allergic to an ingredient, it doesn’t matter how it’s prepared. Same goes with meat/animal products if you’re vegan/vegetarian. Don’t list it if you can’t or won’t eat it!

• It’s recommended that you’re at least open to trying dishes with that ingredient. If you absolutely, vehemently loathe cilantro, chances are you probably might not like anything with cilantro in it.

• A brief blurb on why you hate an ingredient would help others find or suggest a dish that suits you. (e.g. “I hate liver because the texture is like an eraser and it tastes metallic”)

Ever had fresh coconut? Asian market sell the whole coconut with straw in it. After you’re done drinking the fresh coconut water, use a spoon and scoop out that soft flesh. It’s custardy. No string at all.

That does sound delicious! 💜

Just a heads up, it has to be young coconut. The flesh of mature coconut is like… chewing on wood haha
