Back story first:

I wuz exploring koko's blog and slipped into White On Rice, one of
koko's linked blog sites. What was the first recipe to catch my eye?
Umami Burgers. ????

Now, I'm jones'ing an ancient craving, hamburgers and cheeseburgers.
Couldn't find a burger worth a damn in my locale, so started making my
own. I've changed my recipe jes a tad, but I still got it! Made one
last night and it was sublime. But, I'm not above improving upon my
own recipe to further my occasional addiction. WOR sez Viet fish
sauce is the answer to the "ultimate" umami burger.

<http://whiteonricecouple.com/recipes/best-umami-hamburger-recipe/>

While I love fish sauce (Thai or Viet) and always have plenty on hand,
never thought of it as a marinade for my burger meat. I'll definetly
give it a shot. My burger jones is alive and well.

Still....

What is umami? Is it a real deal or jes some Asians trying to foist
their cooking methods/terms off as some sorta scientific fact? If
tomatoes and other MSG heavy foods are particularly savory, is that a
whole new element for one's palate to discern? Why is sweet, sour,
bitter, and salty not enough? In short, is "umami" a real distinction
or jes another trendy term being ferociously flogged through the
food-o-sphere?

I suspect it is just a trendy thing.
Want a good burger, try a good cut of beef or a blend of 2-3 cuts. No
sauce will make a better burger, imo. You need to repair the bottom
line of the sandwich.

If you're unaware of what this is, you could live without it. It could be just a trend as far as home cooks are concerned.

I consider absolutely essential in some dishes. Potato salad being one. My current favorite trick is to use gochujang, but you can also get that naturally by lightly scorching rice in chicken stock as in jook. The locals here are heavy into umami. It's why we use shoyu and MSG in cooking. Umami is the reason why Japan mayo and gochujang is gonna make it big in the US. OTOH, that's just going to be a hot trend for 15 minutes or so.

The people in Hawaii and Asia were raised eating umami rich foods. I have some doubts that umami will have much of an impact on cooks not raised on umami foods - even though the food manufacturers use it to increase sales. They are fully aware of how powerful the stuff is as a flavor enhancer.

I don't think the West has much of a history with the taste. The
Japanese do because they have been fermenting rice and soybeans
utilizing Aspergillus oryzae for a couple of thousand years. At it's
heart, the umami taste is the end result of fermentation with this
fungus. They use it to produce shoyu, miso, sake, shio koji, fermented
tofu, and other products. This makes A. oryzae the most important fungus
to the Japanese and is responsible for much of the flavor of Japanese
cuisine. Only a Japanese could have discovered "umami."

You get a lot of umami with nicely browned meat. We have a lot of
experience with that, and with a host of other foods that provide
umami: tomatoes, anchovies, hard cheeses, mushrooms, etc.

Umami is not exclusively a Japanese thing, although they monetized it
when they invented MSG, and they provided us with a name for it.

I understand that the West has foods with umami flavors but to the
average Westerner, umami is a mysterious thing. The reason is because
most of them were not raised with shoyu or fish sauce as their national
condiment. Hawaiians understand it because they put shoyu on everything
- from fish to stews, heck we put shoyu on rice. We totally get the
concept.

Hate to burst yer bubble, but only the Japanese could have named
"umami".

Americans have been eating and using "umami" for over half a century.
We jes never applied a term to it. I know cuz I've been eating pizza
and spaghetti heavily dosed w/ Parmesan cheese for even longer. Plus,
in the 50s, Ac'cent brand MSG was huge in America. The very first
recipe box I ever remember seeing was an old Ac'cent box. It was only
since the great Chinese restaurant scare (totally disproved) that
Americans have backed away from MSG. That still didn't impair their
love for pizza/spaghetti, which is allegedly loaded with "umami"
(tomatoes, parm).

I'm gonna try an experiment. Dashi, the ubiquitous Japanese soup
broth, is considered to be THE food that distinguishes and isolates(?)
"umami". I've made it once before, so will make it again and see what
I discover.

I will make REAL dashi using kombu seaweed and dried bonito flakes. I
long ago changed to instant dashi, but for the sake of science I will
make it from scratch, despite bonito flakes being expensive as Hell
out here in the boonies. Stay tuned.

Making Dashi is so easy. It's wonderful sipped on it's own and as a
base for any number of recipes.

I also put a little piece of kombu seaweed into my chicken broth,
stews, soups etc...it makes a world of difference.
My friend took my advice and put a piece of kombu in her chicken soup.
She said her family raved on and on about how that was the best soup
she'd ever made. So yes, umami is real and makes a difference, and is
availale from several sources.

It's not hard. You save the flakes in the fridge and add more seawwed
for 'second use dashi' and you can get a weaker version called 'third
use' as well.

For the record, I never once even considered sleeping with you. And
you know that. You're the one who somehow got the idea that I was
going to move in with you - and you posted that to RFC just out of the
total blue.

After having met you twice at casual austin.food gatherings 2 or 3
years ago and not giving you any indication that there was any sort of
romantic interest in the least, you somehow twisted that into MY
MOVING IN WITH YOU?

That was just way too Psycho for me. I sat there at stared at the
screen for at least 15 minutes wondering, WTF? That was just way too
spooky. I've met weird, semi-psycho women before but you win, hands
down. Mapi of austin.general still holds the male title, but at least
he announced his psychosis right there lying on the floor of the bar
at B.D. Reilly's rather than romantically obsessing over me for 2
years.

Needless to say, you need to come to terms with what happened and why
your mind works that way and stop making up excuses for your fixation
and disappointment before we become the next Yoli and Michael. I'd
prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away.
There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo.

And Jeremy, I was just tired of your decade of bullshit and visions of
grandeur about all these things you're "working on" or have not done
in the past. Even posting a call for meetings with imaginary people
about imaginary projects of yours at "the normal time and place", as
if you are somebody important with a life. I'm pretty sure you're
manic depressive mixed with habitual liar.

Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles.

You can buy "umami" paste, but it's made of things you'd recognize -

Tomato paste
Garlic
Anchovy paste
Black olives
Balsamic vinegar
Dehydrated porcini mushrooms
Parmesan cheese
Olive oil
Wine vinegar
Sugar
Salt

So IMO, umami is the new "je nes se quois".

Running for the White House, Jeb Bush portrays himself as a man who has
"worked his tail off" to get ahead in life. But in his business
dealings—which involved such diverse fields as real estate, credit card
services, and water pumps—the candidate seemed to benefit from his
father's political power and worked with people who turned out to be
criminals, the Washington Post reports. Bush's business outlook in his
early years was "a little bit of damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead,"
says a professor who wrote about him. "His judgment on who to associate
with is lacking." Unlike his father and brother George, who each made
fortunes as young men, Jeb jumped from one business venture to another,
at times with unsavory characters.

I always had the i pression that umami was an idea or a pleasant impression,
or a feeling, not an actual physical product. I don't know where that idea came
from.

Correct.

You know how people are these days. They want a shortcut to
reproducing it rather than learn to combine ingredients deftly until
they create umami.

Actually, you have the right of the word as it is. There are food
products that create that. The Japanese coined a word for that umami.

If I were to put it in my own words, it's that thing that makes you
smile.

It's marketing hyperbole. "Umami paste" is a combination of foods
that are high in the amino acids that produce the umami taste (for
which scientists have found receptors on the tongue).

Like "bed in a bag". You don't get an actual bed in a bag.

To prove a case, you need one that was involved in an operation or a

It has even been confirmed that George Bush (GHWB) denied presidents,
during and after his tenure in office, access to sensitive data, such
the the U.S. UFO files due to the fact they did not possess the proper
security clearances. President Carter wanted to access those files due
to his own experience of seeing a UFO but was denied access by the CIA.
To this day, GHWB exercises undue influence within the CIA as he made
sure he had loyal operatives at all levels, starting at the
directorship. Then again he made sure he had damaging information on
many key individuals, all else failing he “ordered their
neutralization,” former CIA Director William Colby, being a notable
example. The official finding was suicide.

He is known, by many government insiders, to be an openingly unabashed
(doesn’t hide it among friends) pedophile, specifically referring to the
Franklin Community Credit Union scandal in the 1980s which was a major
national scandal that was covered-up by White House officials during the
time GHWB was vice president to Reagan and later.

He is also a practicing satanist by many accounts (now very popular
among the elite with their hand signs and T.V shows with satanic symbols
and themes – Beyonce, one among many); a coward (during World War II);
authorized the assassinations of democratically elected foreign leaders,
as well as American citizens – most notably Ross Perot who ran against
him as president – and used the CIA as a front for drug smuggling into
the United States using military transport aircraft and ships, a
practice that started with the Iran/Contra Scandal and later blossomed
as a major source of black operations funding outside the congressional
budget appropriations process where Congress controls the purse.

For the record, I never once even considered sleeping with you. And
you know that. You're the one who somehow got the idea that I was
going to move in with you - and you posted that to RFC just out of the
total blue.

After having met you twice at casual austin.food gatherings 2 or 3
years ago and not giving you any indication that there was any sort of
romantic interest in the least, you somehow twisted that into MY
MOVING IN WITH YOU?

That was just way too Psycho for me. I sat there at stared at the
screen for at least 15 minutes wondering, WTF? That was just way too
spooky. I've met weird, semi-psycho women before but you win, hands
down. Mapi of austin.general still holds the male title, but at least
he announced his psychosis right there lying on the floor of the bar
at B.D. Reilly's rather than romantically obsessing over me for 2
years.

Needless to say, you need to come to terms with what happened and why
your mind works that way and stop making up excuses for your fixation
and disappointment before we become the next Yoli and Michael. I'd
prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away.
There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo.

And Jeremy, I was just tired of your decade of bullshit and visions of
grandeur about all these things you're "working on" or have not done
in the past. Even posting a call for meetings with imaginary people
about imaginary projects of yours at "the normal time and place", as
if you are somebody important with a life. I'm pretty sure you're
manic depressive mixed with habitual liar.

Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles.
