Dill
Fresh dill is mostly pointless, and only really goes well with fish or seafood, so I wouldn’t bother unless you start liking fish or seafood. It has so little taste anyway it is more used for its prettyness.
Most fishes
Do you like smoked samon, tuna ? Can you pluck up the courage to try tuna sashimi (raw tuna) as it is the least fishy of all fish imho.
All nuts
Try using ground almond in a curry sauce, also experiment with nut oils for cooking or salad dressings.
Tomatoes
If you remove the skin and seeds before using they can be much nicer. Do you like smoothe tomato sauces? If you don’t mind spending money to experiment, try heirloom tomatoes, especially with a little crumbled blue cheese.
Whole Wheat Bread
Crunchy bread goes with crunchy fillings. Also wholewheat bread can be dryer than more processed bread so use more butter in making sandwiches with it. Whole Wheat or brown bread also works well as accompanyment to soup, where a little extra texture can be an advantage.
Raspberries
If you like chocolate, get a nice rich chocolate cake/torte. Crush fresh rasberries through a sive into a small bowl. Then serve the chocolate cake with fresh thick cream and a small pool of rasberry juice on the side. Also rasberry juice makes a good addition to chocolate fudge brownie recipies. I agree that rasberry seeds are not very nice at-all spoiling the use of whole berries for me.
Fancy mustard (I don’t care about french’s)
Just an acquired taste, try red-dragon Cheese see if you like it. Beaver also do a selection of fairly friendly fancyish mustards.
Pepper (As in black)
Too much is rarely much good, but a little often improves almost any cooked sauce. Try strawberries with a little black pepper if you like strawberries.
Bell peppers that aren’t red (I already like the red ones)
Yellow and orange are sweeter, green more bitter, make sure you remove all seeds and white structures from inside the pepper before cooking with them. Try using a selection of colours when you might otherwise use red.
Parmesan
Only ever use Italian Parmesan, and grate it freshly as you use it. Regiano is the best quality and is well worth using. Long lasting parmesan is just nasty.
More Basil
Just an aquired taste, go for fresh basil when possible (though the stuff you get in ‘toothpaste’ tubes isn’t too bad) use sparingly and it helps make any Italian dish more Italian.
Zucchini (Love it in bread, hate it otherwise)
One of many low-flavoured vegitables, you can do without it. Cook it quickly with garlic or something to add flavour.
Ricotta Cheese
As one of many cheeses on a mixed cheese pizza works quite well
Sugar Snap Peas (I loathe peas, but it would be nice to like these)
Qucik steamed as a side dish, maybe add a little lemon zest.
Jicama
– bless you
no idea
Cooked Spinach (I like fresh, raw)
Pretty pointless foodstuff. Spinach isn’t even believed to be all that good for you any more, so don’t bother and stick to fresh spinach in salads etc.
Grapefruit
Halve a grapefruit. Use a knife to partially separate the segments. Sprincle with sugar and cinimon and place under a grill until the sugar starts to caramalize, then eat with a spoon.
Honeydew
Slices of mellon with proscutiio ham makes a simple starter to a meal.
Artichoke hearts (Never had any “just” artichoke, so I don’t know about that.)
Some of the artichoke hearts preserved in oil I have had are pretty nasty. But if you find a good supply a few pieces of artichoke heart can be added to a salad to good effect.
