…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.

    Interesting. You might be right. The whole “does x taste the same to me as it does to you” question is fascinating, and I hadn’t thought about it here. For me, jarred garlic lacks a bit of the bite and spice of fresh garlic, and tends to be weaker after cooking, but I don’t associate it with any sour flavor. Basically, it’s “rounded-off” garlic to me.

    Now I’m curious how you experience powdered garlic. That tastes even less strong to me than jarred, and maybe slightly processed, but I wonder if that has a stronger effect on your palate.
