Happened again today. I cooked a chicken on Saturday and boiled spuds, turnip and carrots to go with. I cooked extra for whatever and did something I normally don't do. I had cooked extra extra spuds so I dumped the turnip and carrots (diced) on top of the spuds so it would all fit on one plate to go in the fridge.

Today, I cooked a hash. The spuds were SWEET! They had a sweet taste and it was "turnippy". Might not be your cup of tea (not mine, really) but something I learned by doing something which I don't normally do... an "accident".

Another example... one time, I cooked a LEAN cut of cheap steak medium rare, salted and peppered it and placed what I didn't eat it the fridge. All the juice on the plate was sucked into the steak by the salt placed on top. Next day, it was as juicy as it was from pan to plate.

Youse ever discover something in like manner?
