Season with acid
FLAVOUR BOOSTERS
Add another element to your dishes by simply including some acidity
After seasoning with salt, the second easiest way to boost the flavour of a dish is to introduce a little acidity. This will give your recipe more definition. It can be as simple as adding a splash of vinegar to a sauce or finishing with a squeeze of citrus, which works well when you don’t want the acid to dominate, but simply lift the dish a little. You can also include punchy ingredients such as capers or kimchi, which will have more of a starring role in the recipe. As well as the obvious vinegars, lemon, lime and pickles, ingredients such as natural yogurt, wine, soured cream, tomatoes or pineapple will also add acidity as well as more flavour.
