DP Daily Prompt: Unlikely Pairinghttps://sabethville.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=25279&action=edit&message=10#post_name

Bacon and chocolate Caramel and cheddar— Is there an unorthodox food pairing you really enjoy? Share with us the weirdest combo you’re willing to admit that you like— and how you discovered it.

I am not sure how weird is my choice of liking beef and salmon. I cook them separately but I take them on my plate at the same time. My favorite  carbohydrate is rice, both salmon and beef stew is delicious with rice. I eat a slice of salmon with rice then I switch and the next morsel is beef and rice. I’ve been told it’s weird to eat fish and beef alternately for a meal. However  my taste bud does not  disapprove.

It is believed artificial flavors are safer than natural. Artificial flavors undergo a lot of testing before they are considered safe for consumption.

We use salt or sugar to enhance the taste of some natural foods. There are fruits such as oranges or grapefruit that sometimes are too sour for us,some of us either sprinkle some sugar or salt to make it more palatable. Does it make it better. I’d say they suit our taste buds.

Meat and fish are foods that we cook.  They can be boiled,baked,fried or barbecued. Certain kind of meat tastes better if we refrain from spicing it too much. Roast beef tastes better with least amount of spices and some or no salt. It retains its natural flavor. I like the natural flavor better.

Baked fish ,especially Cod is not that tasty. We improve its taste by adding spices, oil, and other flavorants to improve its flavor. We like food that are tasty, and we think of ways to make it palatable.

I was thinking of the vegetable Spinach,whenever I mentioned the name my little students would make a face. They disliked it . The problem is Spinach is terrible when it is just boiled.  If only we add one small section of a garlic clove, a bit of salt and fry it with a  tablespoon of  oil in a sauce pan it completely changes the taste and makes it flavorful.
