Now, I know you might be thinking that MSG is toxic, or poison, or something that gives people headaches. Monosodium glutamate adds dimension and umami to many foods, but it’s a particularly good addition to plant-based foods that may not inherently contain umami. I’ve finally found the solution, and it doesn’t involve an entire bag of nutritional yeast! The problem is that the nutritional yeast is just never enough. In the past, when I’ve tried to make it, I usually end up putting a ton of nutritional yeast in there to give it some umami…the ‘fifth flavor’ and that oomph that normal mac and cheese gets from the cheese. I’m sorry, but even if the cheese is smooth, it somehow just doesn’t taste right. I love vegan food, but the one thing that I haven’t found yet is a good vegan mac and cheese recipe.
