For me it was using a pizza cutter to slice the dough while making homemade noodles, I felt like fuckin' Einstein. I'll never use a knife again if I can help it.

    sweet, salt, fat, sour, pick three (green, brown, hot, cold, pick three)

      True, you can get a lot of mileage out of limitations. Let each ingredient shine rather than drowning them all together. Solid advice, thank you.

        You can’t tell me what to do I’m picking 4

        Seriously it's all four when possible. Sugar, salt, and acid all carry flavor, and small quantities of each disappear seamlessly into dishes while boosting everything else. And fat is just something that's involved in physically cooking most foods.

        Actually making something taste overtly sweet or sour is more a "what is the dish" sort of thing.
