    A few weekends ago a friend alerted me to the James Martin cooking show where very famous baker Cherish Finden made a chocolate cake containing soy sauce.

    also, I have ordered these before. Fish Sauce Caramels. Love!

    Now that is something I've never seen before...I'm intrigued! Salt is just so, so good...and a necessary ingredient!

    On the umami sweets thread, we ordered a takeaway dinner last week from a fancy restaurant. Then lockdown happened and we had to cancel because we wouldn't be allowed to collect dinner from the restaurant, a journey requiring public transport.

    Dessert would have been sticky toffee pudding with Chinese fermented black bean and cherry.

    Yesterday I cooked a dinner consisting of a coarse mash of potato, china cabbage and coconut flakes with a bit of milk to make it smoother. Topped with haloumi marinated in sweet soy sauce, chili, ginger and garlic, and again topped with fresh mango. Just happened to have those things in the house.

    This sounds very yum...you'll have to get back there when this 'thing' goes away. (that is if the restaurant survives this mess)

    Ketchup on white rice. I know that sounds gross. I don't do it often but it's always tasty when I do. I think I'm just obsessed with ketchup lol.

    Three of my favorite foods on one sandwich, I must try! I have eaten peanut butter and banana sandwiches before, though.

    It sounds good to me too, think I'll give it a try.😎 May even fry the bologna a bit before making the sandwich.

    Not that I have ate this in decades...
    peanut butter, whipped butter, maple syrup on white or peanut butter and jelly on oatmeal cookies. Probably not too wierd....
    Sugar free jello with protein powder mashed together. I make a "mock" buttercream frosting with vanilla protein, powder, butter extract, vanillam almond cashew milk, imitation butter salt (vegan version) sugar free maple syrup. This is from competing in body building and figure shows. We have such a srict regimine and can come up with some strange things

    I finally tried that. It was ok but I think the bbq sauce had too much of a kick.

    I really like marinara sauce over white rice, tho.

    That nearly made me throw up in my mouth. I hate icing that is not cream cheese and even it can be a bit strong.

    My contribution:

    This morning's frittata included spinach, onion, cauliflower, red bell pepper, cottage cheese, topped with left-over vegetarian chili. It admittedly looked kind of gross but it was good. I am not sure if that ranks as weird since a frittata main purpose in life is collecting scraps and leftovers.

    I like dipping crudites in commercial Thai seafood sauce. Maesri is a favourite brand.

    I wouldn't say that's weird!

    Re frosting: not something I typically eat, but sometimes get massive cravings for it!

    I've mentioned this earlier on the thread, but anyone who loves peanut butter with savoury food such as meat needs to check out some classic Indonesian and Malaysian recipes such as gado gado and satay sauce.

    Gado- Gado...yummo! I'm such a fan of putting any nut/seed butter on Buddah-type bowls/veggies/anything really - sweet or savory.

    I have an obsession with green smoothies- leafy greens, avocado and pea protein with CAYENNE AND COCOA POWDER!

    I Love dark chocolate and hot chocolate with hot peppers, cayenne and spices!
