Is there any story behind how you discovered it?
MSG.
Nutritional yeast tastes great on popcorn. No story just trying to be healthy.
Ooo interesting. I bought some for a recipe that I ended up never making. I’ve heard it tastes kind of like cheese. Is that right?
It’s cheeselike. It’s a similar flavor profile but it doesn’t actually taste like cheese. It’s tasty though, I like it with a bit of margarine in grits too.
I bought some for a vegan gravy recipe (that was shockingly decent, btw), didn’t need most of it and have been slowly using the bag since Thanksgiving. A little goes a long way.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Cracked black pepper. Then either shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano or nutritional yeast.
Basically, all the savoury flavours at once - and not as boring as plain salt.
