Also OMG pretty sure @Overo Mare does the sniffing thing too! I thought it was so odd yet fascinating!

My Dad does it too.

Plenty of people hold up things up and look to see if this color goes with (this wall, this furniture, this person, this outfit, this quilt, etc.) Sniffing spices is the same kind of thing, just with a different sense. You can sniff the cooking food, and the spices in the jar, and one or another just seems "right" for that dish on that day.

Any recipe that is served on a starch (rice, noodles, potatoes, bread) may be good with a different starch.

Or not. Putting it on a large lettuce leaf for the Atkins / Keto group can work wonders too. Im not totally into that whole Keto thing, I do cheat, (which yes can cause.. complications.. when comiing in and out of ketosis?? however it's spelled) But I find that many recipes requiring floury kind of stuff, can often be subbed and still be really good.

A friend showed me almond flower, supposedly it's good for the carb diets. .. yes.. another 'tweak' we got to play with
