Just put it on everything savory, it's similar to soy sauce in that respect. Don't go too easy on it, it's 25% salt by mass so you can easily do a 2% concentration on the food (if you don't add salt separately, otherwise replace 50% of salt with the seasoning)

Is that an umami bomb?

>> No.7862321

people use it instead of vegeta to give their bland meals (mostly soups) some taste, it is basically salt, some taste enhancers

Use of items like this died out in the US back in the 70s. They were the precursor to MSG. Worcestershire, anchovies, mushrooms, they fill the gap for slow cooking things where simmering and bones, and wine added flavor.

Some countries just never stopped using them. The US had started some food police policy of not including anything that might trigger migraines, food allergies or be unnatural. These products just because taboo. I'm sure today you can hardly find liquid smoke, kitchen bouquet and the like. People who appreciated those things in past recipes go out of their way to find their foreign items, hunt down the old favorites.

It's cracked wheat protein high in MSG. It's great! Tastes very dominant and more than a few drops is too much in any dish. Imagine a beef half boiled down for weeks until it is pure liquid goo. That's not what it is, but it is what it tastes like.

Anything savory and more sophisticated than a fish fillet will benefit from a little Maggi. The brand name describes the product, even though they make a vast selection of products and are more well known for their bouillon cubes internationally. But nuanced purist flavors are easily overwhelmed by it, so don't overdo it. The stuff is so concentrated, it can be hard to get the dosage right.

I put a little into almost any soup or sauce I make. It gives stock a deeper flavor profile and underlines meat and veggie flavors nicely.

One easy thing I use it for is fried eggs. You can just dribble some on top, but here's what I do:
Separate yolk and white, put yolk aside.
Whisk a little salt and a drop of Maggi into the eggwhite, fry.
Flip and add yolk on top, lower heat, cover.
Done BEFORE the yolk has completely set.
Goes well with sourdough, fried bacon, and parsley.

If you make a soup and it's a bit bland at the end, add this stuff and it tastes finde.
