    What makes you feel like pepper is such an incredible and necessary ingredient?

      If the meat is good, it’ll be good with or without pepper.

      Overall I feel like boiling is in general ignorantly ridiculed far too much by modern cooking culture, especially famous restaurant chefs. Stews are usually easily better than the average “home chef’s” steak attempt #62.

      It’s no the lack of pepper. It’s the lack of everything.

      What makes you think boiled undersalted meat cubes are a meal?

          Plain, boiled meat?

          I can’t tell you what you enjoy or don’t… but that’s not a very refined palate, imo.

          Edit wait I just realised the sub I’m in. Explains it a bit

            A “refined palate” isn’t a beneficial or good trait.

            Being unable to stomach a good raw ingredient after a basic cooking process doesn’t make you better.

            A demanding palate is a special need.

            A special need mostly only nobles historically were able to meet.
