I could never do vegetarian because almost all green veggies taste incredibly bitter to me. Even iceberg lettuce which people claims has no taste still tastes bitter to me.

I'm the same way for a lot of things but cooking them properly helps a lot. See: brussels sprouts. Those fuckers are incredibly bitter but I love them now because I can cook them right: the answer to bitterness is roasting. Roast all the vegetables.

Another good tip is to suck it up until you learn to like it. It takes a while to develop a taste for something. For example, I developed my taste for human flesh at around age 10, after several years of Catholic mass.

More specifically for brussels sprouts: Preheat oven to 400F. Cut sprouts in half. Apply liberal amount of kosher salt, conservative amount of olive oil, toss them around. Put in oven for 40 minutes, shaking the pan every 10 minutes or so to dislodge them for even roasting. While cooking, put some balsamic vinegar in a saucepan over medium-ish heat until it's boiling, then reduce heat. Stir that poo poo constantly until you get a nice reduction: to test whether it's reduced enough, put a plate in the freezer for a few minutes, and when you think the reduction is done, drop a few droplets onto the frozen plate and turn it on its side. If the droplet stays put, it's done! If it runs, keep cooking/stirring and test it every few minutes. Once sprouts have roasted for 40 minutes, take them out of the oven and toss in the reduction and consume. I've never met a single person that didn't love them this way, even if they abhorred them normally.

Why do you need religiously approved salt? I don't get it. It's just a mineral mined from the earth, not a living being.

Larger grain size, no iodine. Named Kosher because it was used to remove blood to make things Kosher.

Ecco if you want to eat more turnips you should make this soup. It's really good. You can sub the chicken stock, obv. Better than bullion makes a good fake chicken bullion iirc. http://www.washingtonpost.com/pb/recipes/silken-turnip-soup/11003/

EccoRaven posted:I am blessed with liking most vegetables. Carrots and broccoli taste sweet to me, I love brussels sprouts even if they're squishy and gross, I love tomatoes and onions and mushrooms and cucumbers, peas are a staple in many of my meals, corn is ok, kale is very good and I use it in my tacos and sandwiches, radishes are okay, squashes are obviously wonderful esp. in fall, turnips are wonderful and I don't eat them nearly enough but I definitely should because they're even good raw. See, I just do not like bitter things and want sweet all the time. I'm like a hummingbird that just wants sugar water all the time. And don't get me wrong, I do like some veggies but just not most green ones because they taste bitter to me. On the other hand, you could give me potatoes or peas or corn or cucumber or mushrooms or onions and I'm generally ok with it. I'm not a big fan of raw tomatoes, but I love a good tomato based sauce.

Kumbamontu posted:More specifically for brussels sprouts: Cut in quarters, toss with balsamic, soy sauce, steak seasoning and Worcestershire, then place in glass baking dish, cut some lumps of butter on top, stick in oven at 420 degrees. Stir every five to seven minutes until they're soft and browning. A little char is totally okay. Best served over quinoa with cheddar cheese melted into it. You can use this method with a lot of different vegetables. Asparagus and broccoli are totally great like this.

Its fucken easy. Roasted sweet potato is amazing. Twice cooked roast potato is also great. You par boil until its slightly soft on the outside, then put the lid on and shake it up a bit so the outside gets all fluffy. Then make a mixture of olive oil, pepper, whatever the gently caress salt you want, and some fucken herbs like oregano and lightly coat the potato chunks. Then roast those fuckers. Then eat them. gently caress.

Sweet potatoes are gross no matter the preparation. Regular potatoes are mostly okay, unless they're not salted enough and then they taste like bland. I prefer mashed over any other preparation as well, but baked is good too. One thing I've learned recently is that you can replace sour cream with plain greek yogurt almost universally. You're unlikely to notice any difference in taste or texture, but you're getting a nice amount of protein instead of sugar and fat. This works especially well on baked potatoes and sour cream based sauces, such as dill sauce for artichokes and salmon.

You're not cooking them right then. Potatoes don't need a whole lot of salt if you roast them right.
