>white people don't use spices

Where does this shitty meme come from? If anything, east asian cuisines doesn't use spices. Just try to think of some they use that aren't just "chilli".

>> No.10464638

the austerity of Protestantism saw western europeans stop using most of the decadent spices from the silk road
those western nations then populated the new world and so when people think white they think WASP, I'm sure the spanish and italians always used fancy spices but rightly they are not thought of as the caricature of "white people"

>counting black pepper, white pepper, garlic counts as spices
>counting five spice, a spice blend containing other spices you already mentioned, as its own spice

Garlic is used as a spice.
Black pepper and white pepper are spices.
Five spice contains a couple that I mentioned but also others which aren't commonly used on their own so I just listed five spice instead.

Checkmate.

Reminder that garlic is too pungent for some white people so they rub the garlic on the bowl they're using

It is an option for a subtle hint of a spice that can otherwise overpower other flavors, particularly in a salad. Subtlety in some aspects can highlight other flavors. Do you mix an even amount of every spice you're going to use so that something like cinnamon pancakes can have as much allspice as cinnamon? Because that would ruin the flavor.

As an exercise, please do make cinnamon pancakes with as much allspice as cinnamon. You'll find that while allspice is useful in proper amounts to highlight the cinnamon and elevate the flavor, including it in equal amounts won't give you cinnamon pancakes anymore. It will give you allspice pancakes.

Yes and? I'll fucking add as much nutmeg on it too because I'm not afraid of using spice.

So you're telling me you're incapable of making cinnamon pancakes? That's pretty basic, you could find a few recipes tangelo you with the ingredients on youtube probably.

Mainly due to WASPs who historically have been puritan and thus denied themselves any good things and the 50s generation that grew up on TV dinner and thus have dead tastebuds. Whites otherwise do enjoy spices, that was one of the main reasons why the world was conquered by whites

Blacks think spice is only hot shit, and that strong taste is for strong people only. It's just power play and insecurity.

It comes from niggers that have gotten so used to covering their rotten chicken with so much spice (usually in a spice blend made by a white guy) in order to cover up the foul fowl taste. They also use the same spice on everything so it tastes the same no matter what, arguably worse than using no spices ever. Variety is one of the best spices that they rarely use or appreciate.
I'd rather eat unspiced food made with fresh ingredients that have otherwise been properly seasoned than have my senses assaulted by a vulgar overuse of spice.

Dill is an herb not a spice
