Haha, I’ve swapped honey for soy sauce in a vinaigrette—made the salad taste like a tiny sushi bar. But the real trick? I once put a whole lemon in a pot of spaghetti water and then let the sauce go straight into the pot. The noodles soaked up the citrus, so when you cut into one it exploded with bright, unexpected zing. It’s like a flavor surprise party, and everyone ends up asking, “Did you just…?” I guess the key is to keep people guessing, even if it means your kitchen smells like a circus.
