Just realized I was over-salting my black beans this whole time
Last week I was making my usual cheap black beans and rice, and I dumped in some leftover bacon grease by accident instead of salt. Turns out a little fat does more for flavor than tossing in spoonfuls of salt, and I saved like $2 on seasoning. Has anyone else accidentally found a better way to season cheap staples?

Oh man, totally! I accidentally dumped leftover chili oil into my lentils once and it was game changing. Now I always keep a jar of fat or something funky around for cheap beans.

My buddy Dave accidentally poured pickle juice into his rice cooker instead of water once. He said it was the best damn rice he'd ever made, now he adds a splash every time.
