    dunked in salty oil and roasted

    You’re describing the most basic of seasoning and cooking. That’s a weird position to take, that you don’t really like a food unless you eat it raw and unseasoned.

      not really?

      italian and japanese cuisine don’t consider fat and seasoning the “basics” of cooking - quite the opposite actually. these cultures consider exemplifying the inherent qualities of the fresh ingredients more important and it shows in their dishes. just look at a proper italian pasta dish, or some sushi/sashimi…

      it’s only a weird position if you come from a culture where “maximize the amount of brain chemicals this dumps out” is the objective of the cuisine…
