lifenajeje: Further point of correction . It is not "called seasoning". Seasoning is a generic term which could mean salt ,Maggi Knorr,curry etc so seasoning does not identify it. If you say "bring some seasoning" ,No way does that mean Maggi or Knorr exclusively it could mean thyme or garlic or ginger The proper generic name is "STOCK CUBE" or "BOUILLON CUBE" and yes you are correct Maggi is a brand name . A good alternative is "MEAT WATER" Maggi stock cubes were introduced in 1908 and as is the case with many branded products the First brand(or Leading brand) is often used in place of the CLASS e.g Xerox Coke Guinness etc Just be sure if you are going around correcting people you have all the facts. Back to subject. The issue is PALATABILITY and a key ingredient in many stock cubes is MonoSodium Glutamate which actually tastes like salt and COULD be mildly addictive so much that some people will show a very strong preference for MSG foods. This is an important factor for those who mix feeds for poultry and Fish. Adding salt or Maggi can enhance animal feeding and weight gain 6 Likes 2 Shares |

I am a woman that cooks without Maggi. Curry, thyme, ginger, garlic and salt are enough. Then crayfish and Iru for traditional meals. I find that cooking is about chemistry. It depends on when you add the seasoning that matters. If you add seasoning when food is at high temperature it absorbs the seasoning more. In fact you will be scared, cause little salt can't spoil the food. Each food has its own flavor, don't kill it with maggi 4 Likes 1 Share |

How does this affect you now? If you do not like maggi, cook your food yourself! |

Re: Why Can't Ladies Cook Without "Maggi"? by baby124: 4:56pm On Mar 27, 2016 |
daretodiffer:That is why you say it does not taste the same. Because you have killed your buds with maggi. You don't even taste the food again, just maggi maggi. I have never tried tumeric. Just ordinarily sautéing garlic, onion, tomato and ginger with salt can bring out a heavenly flavor. It's all about when you add your seasoning with cooking. Adding these spices at high temperatures will greatly reduce your salt use. After cooking without maggi for some time, when you taste good that has maggi you can tell immediately. In fact I get headaches from maggi food. If you try my jollof and fried rice without maggi, you will bow. 4 Likes 1 Share |
