Hey SA - I've actually had a really great grilled romaine salad, so it's possible! But keep on cookin' what makes both of you happy - life is too short to get yer undies in a bunch over the small stuff (as long as it isn't a health issue for anyone).
My wife is the same when it comes to detesting salt; it's just not worth arguing about it with her; and sometimes I slip it into things by using soy or fish sauce, etc. She loves my brisket and it tends to be pretty salty, so I think most of it is a pre-conceived bias against salt in her case. But like btcg said: you can be "happy or right", so for this discussion I'll choose "happy" and save "right" for the big stuff.
PS - nice briskie!
Thanks FW,
You know exactly what I mean.
Interesting thing, I made some chili from some left over chuck roasts I smoked last week, and added a little paprika, cumin, and mustard powder: she claimed she couldn't eat it, the spices were gagging her.
Yet, the previous week, I made up 3 batches of my homemade BBQ sauce, one for each of us. Each batch is spiced according to what we individually like.
In hers? The same amount of cumin, paprika, and mustard powder as I put in the entire pot of chili. She LOVES the BBQ sauce.
So I think you're right on - it's a bias.
