Sorry weird title since it’s hard to explain but: I want to cook more for my roommates and friends, however I’m running into a problem of making sure my food tastes good to more than just me. I am someone who loves really powerful flavors, specifically pickled things and spicy things.
I usually catch myself adding pickled peppers, pickles, and red onions to a lot of the food I make. Specifically vinegar is a huge staple when I cook wether it be red wine vinegar, balsamic, white vinegar, or rice wine vinegar. It usually finds a way.
However, I want to start cooking more for my friends. I think I’m a decent cook, I grew up with a chef family, but I don’t know how to cook food for a few of my friends. I have a few picky friends who cant stand the taste of vinegar and can’t handle a lot of spice. They’re not picky in a traditional chicken finger fries way since theylle eat a lot of different foods, but they still don’t like the harsher taste profiles. What sort of ingredients or spices should I use to make something flavorful and delicious but not too overpowering? Without my usual go to of “hell I’ll chop up some pickled peppers and throw it in with a little lime” that I usually do for my meals I’m kind of lost. It’s important to mention too that I’m a vegetarian as are most of my friends so it’s important to me that the food I do make is flavorful as I’ve noticed without a meat it’s sometimes a struggle to make a meal feel fulfilling or savory.
Basically just asking for some sort of guidance on how to make food flavorful but not overpoweringly sour or spicy for people who may be a little more sensitive to it :) thank you!
