The Plate Life


Why Eating at Home is Making a Comeback

Eating out in dining establishments is a common pastime that many people partake in for social gatherings, reunions, new experiences with new or familiar comfort foods. Eating out is an activity that transcends race, ethnicity, background, occupation, relationship status and language. Who doesn’t love to enjoy great food in an inviting atmosphere?!

However, for over the last 2+ years, the pandemic has also changed the way many people eat and enjoy food. With the seating and capacity restrictions amid the rise of COVID-19 cases, more people are opting to eating at home. Surely, at least one person by now has tried their attempt at air-fryer donuts (Yummy!) or DIY sourdough bread loafs. Moving past the Tik-Tok food fads, eating from home is making a recent comeback. Not only is it financially sound (which helps with current rising costs of living), cooking from home gives people more control over their plates, regarding what ingredients are included in a meal, the quantity of the meal, how the meal is cooked, and how the meal is customized for everyone’s own taste.

When creating meals at home, adding a flavor punch to each dish is important to keep things interesting and tasty. Whether creating a meal-prep plan for the week for those who are back in the office, to making daily scrambled eggs, Flavour-O-Rama definitely answers the call to adding “tastebud utopia”! The aroma definitely brings life into the kitchen, drawing in the senses.


Flavour-O-Rama Tastebud Teasers

Flavour-O-Rama, being the all-purpose hero that it is, goes very well with tomato-based dishes. Do not let the use of the common tomato fool you! It can go far to create delicious pasta or aromatic shakshuka. Please see the Tastebud Teasers below on how you can use Flavour-O-Rama, the next time you make a healthy heaping serving of pasta sauce for a weeknight pasta dish:

  • Use Flavour-O-Rama to Flavor Every. Part. Of. The. Dish.

With pasta sauce, season every part of the dish. From the ground meat or vegan meat alternative to the sauce itself, there is no limit of how Flavour-O-Rama can be used. Each layer of flavor builds on itself, becomes more intense and robust. As the sauce simmers, the taste just gets better and better. You can’t beat that!

  • Season the Oil with Flavour-O-Rama While Sautéing Onions or Other Aromatics

Oil has the powerful ability to carry flavor throughout each dish it is used in. Oil is the perfect vehicle to season the onions or other aromatics (garlic, shallots, etc.) while sautéing. This helps infuse all of the complex flavors of the Flavour-O-Rama seasoning throughout the sauce. It makes it smell divine, and you will not be able to put your fork down afterward.

  • And as Always…Savor the Utopia!

Enjoy!!
