[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Msg (seriously)[/quote] Oh go away. That's like saying your secret ingredient is a jar of Ragu.[/quote] NP-its just a type of salt with more umami that tastes amazing-why is that akin to a processed product that doesn't taste that great?[/quote] Yes, all professional chefs understand that glutamates are important to flavor. Without glutamates, you have no umami, and thus no sense of savoriness. Sometimes the ingredients you use (cheese, nuts, mushroom, different meats) contain enough glutamates to balance the dish. Sometimes you have to add it in its purest form (MSG). It's no different from adding sea salt or sugar to boost the power of ingredients that contain too little of the amount you need. If you think most of the food you eat at restaurants (not just Chinese) doesn't contain MSG, I have a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn.[/quote]
