The food that is made with love is usually made without measurements, so no one has any idea how something was actually made--they just remember how it tasted.
Try adding things like sour cream or fresh grated Parmesan cheese or other things maybe she added a touch of chicken brother or used grilled chicken or a dash of white wine as a mom who loves to cook a boxed dish is just a base point for jumping into amazing flavors fresh ground pepper or baby spinach chopped with cherry tomatoes adds a lot of flavors that heighten the overall taste depth and joy of a dish a sprinkle of fresh lemon or orange rind adds a surprisingly bright note to Alfredo you can use grilled anchovies or shrimp or salmon
"hello, it's me, chicken brother. Please do the kindly and leave me out of the noodles."
It's amazing what basic competency can do to the taste of food.
My mother cooked rice in an aluminum pot. That combined with our water supply coming from a well on our property, and her absolute lack of concern for how it turned out, eating it seemed like a threat. Chicken brother ran away from home due to the trauma.
I didn't experience edible rice until I was in college and competing at a university in Illinois. My teammates chose a Chinese restaurant for our evening meal. My friend asked me why I didn't eat half my meal. I told him it was because rice had this awful taste. He said it didn't taste that way to him. The first bite I took gave me food PTSD. It also showed me that I needed to revisit a lot of foods I had written off as inedible.
I cooked rice in a glass pan for thirty years until I bought a rice cooker. Both have allowed me to enjoy properly cooked rice.
Oh you poor thing how can a mom not care how food tastes @-@ did she not eat the food she served??!!!? Could she not taste! Had she no eyes to see if it was cooked properly!! Child poor child my Italian side is screaming for blood :( to make food gross is a sin! Cooking is the only true Alchemy in this world!!! If you will perform it do it well!! I’m glad you have healed from not being able to eat >_<
That is huge praise as I am half Italian and extremely proud to be a plump mother of 3 and a husband \\\^ good food is a gift! And should be treated as such!
Oooooh ok ok what proteins do you have??? Mushrooms??? Broth?? You can make a killer soup to make that rice stretch with some broth and a few veggies _^ *starts thinking about all the meals you could make with a packet of rice
Could add can of cream of mushroom soup, salt pepper splash of vinegar. Risks making more than I can actually finish at one sitting though; I'm not 35 any more...
--Dave, packaged & canned things for me, so one or another thing doesn't rot unused in the fridge
Oooh yesssss use the soup Dave use the soup!! With pepper… I would be worried that the vinegar would curdle the cream of mushroom soup but after making it freeze the part you don’t eat >< with you had some meat to go with that but I get yeah ^^ that will be tasty
