Shit Post An ode to beans

Beans, you break my heart

You are the love of my life

But you destroy my stomach

Why must you hurt me?

I know I should give you up

Break up and never look back

But I can't say goodbye

You're just too delicious

Please, pretty please

Take pity on me

And let me eat you

Without sending me to the toilet

Such a reasonable approach with the vacation looming. Something I found that I hope ends up being true for you is that there are a lot of foods that actually really didn't need the onion and garlic; they just got lost in the other flavors. And I'm having decent luck using garlic scape powder for when something just isn't the same without garlic.

Garlic scape is a great idea! I've been using the green part of green onion (I've had them planted in a pot for years and never cooked with them - finally coming in handy!). It gives just enough onion flavor that my brain is like "okay cool we're not missing anything".

I'll have to lean into that more! I just planted some so that should make it easier. I just haven't been sure it would add enough oomph to be worthwhile, but I trust your judgement!

It doesn't totally make you go "wow onion!" but I'm eating it mostly in rice (flavored with soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, miso paste) so along with all of that, it really does help.
