Let's talk about "Plain" foods, stuff that isn't heavily spiced or seasoned but is still delicious.
What are your faves?

>Hainanese Chicken
>Nanjing Duck
>Chargrilled fish (salt n' lemon)
>Salt Roasted Chicken
>various steamed foods

This is Nanjing duck, it's so good but so light and easy at the same time

Basically just white fond, roux and cream.

I feel I've cooked similar dishes without knowing, it's seriously tasty but the cream makes it more of a treat than a staple to me

>>21414859
You could probably use milk instead of cream. Or starch instead if the roux if you want to cut a lot of fat. Most of the flavour comes from the fond anyways.

Not sure if you are a third world piece of shit or an American hipster faggot who idolizes poverty food.

vanilla ice cream.

Careful now, I’ve been told Hainanese chicken is not plain and you’re probably a faggot. After all, chicken boiled in water, rice made with the chicken water, and that same chicken water served on the side is SOOOO uber flavorful umami wowwee.

Steamed rice with salt, pepper, and butter. I can eat it every day and never ever get sick of it

>>21415173
Do you think those are the only ingredients needed to make that dish?

Miso soup, even tho one could argue against it

>>21415336
I’m sorry I forgot about the completely irrelevant quantities of ginger and scallion. I excluded them because they don’t really contribute to the finished plate of boiled chicken flavor.

a simple, liquid-smooth bowl of vichyssoise is the single best thing you can do with leeks

>Hainanese Chicken
I feel like this has to be inspired by the last thread. Anyways I'll sometimes get chicken bits and add a little salt then fry them in olive oil until each side gets a nice little golden browning. I also really like boiled eggs, I like them right when the yolk is just barely solid.

I'm a simple man

Sushi is an obviois answer here, and lots of japanese food ingeneral ( :O japan). I also like steak tartar with simple preparation, and you can't go wrong with fresh baked bread and butter. And poached salmon with fennel shalots and lemon just melts in your mouth and is to die for.
