I love the earthiness and flavour of CUMIN
I just love cooking with Lemon, i probably cook with Lemon a minimum of twice a week, it really helps that we have a lemon tree, so i never run out
I LOVE to cook with exotic mushrooms & cheeses!
basil
Summer is here, and edible nasturtium flowers are being bombed onto so many dishes of mine for colour and a slight peppery flavour! loving them
I love cooking with mushrooms, they go in everything much to my boyfriends dismay!
I absolutely love to use garlic. And spicy ingredigents, but yes, most of all garlic in every meal! So sad you can’t use it for sweet things – can you?!
I LOVE cooking with garlic…. use it all the time in everything. My absolute best was smoked garlic from which I made a divine infused oil
Everything tastes better with cinnamon, it’s adding love to food
I’m loving eggs right now: the whites in all their different incarnations: macaroons, meringues and a heavenly meringue date dessert I found recently… and then the sunshiny glory of lemon curd, the deliciousness of a silky creme brulee, and of course… my newfound excitement for poached eggs now that I have PoachPods from Yuppiechef!
Definitely fresh herbs! Especially home grown ones.
Wow, what a difficult choice to make. I have so many favorite ingredients. But an all-time favorite has to be my extra virgin olive oil. I’ll die without olive oil in my house. I have quite a variety ranging from basil and lemon infused and the plain old extra virgin ones. I add it to anything: fronm using it in my stews, to salad dressings sauces, pasta and just drizzled over anything edible.
chocolate! #nuffsaid
So difficult to narrow down what I LOVE to cook with, I absolutely cannnot live without cheese. So anything that incorporates a little cheesy twist! Thanks for such a fantastic website, I am a huge fan.
Sam, I’m big on Spring onions and chilli. With a vegetable garden at home, meat-free days are becoming more common much to the Hubby’s horror
Would love a copy of the book
I love cooking with fresh herbs. Basil and Corinder especially.
I love cooking iwth garlic and ending it off with just a drizzle of lemon. A dip of honey is also great with almost any meal
I love cooking with chilli. Amazing what a difference a small addition can do to give most dishes that extra dimension.
Yikes, only one ingredient? Well possibly the ingredient I love the most and am happy to spend a bit extra on is really good olive oil. Makes such a difference to everything.
We love cooking with absolutely anything we have grown in the garden… we are always plotting meals around what we can glean!!!
Smoked Paprika – I love that the smallest amount gives such depth and flavor to a dish !!! Viva Espania !!
I love cooking with wine
I love coriander – the herb and the seeds. Love it in guacamole, as a garnish on curries, or the crushed seeds mixed into an awesome balsamic glaze for root vegetables (drools)
Dark rich chocolate….
Liked and tweeted.

Only one word needed here: Garlic! Absolutely LOVE the stuff.
I love to cook with tomato. Fresh, canned Italian, cherry tomatoes, Roma tomatoes, passata, tomato paste. It’s so versatile, and goes with so many flavours. And whole, roasted tomatoes? Can anything beat it?
I would have to say fresh chillies. Absolutely love them in almost everything

Garlic flakes are revolutionary! A day phyllo pastry can make anything looks fancy without too much work
When making the traditional pickled fish for our restaurant,I MUST have cumin — !

Garlic
I love cooking with aubergines, not sure why, but it makes any savoury dish taste exotic!
Trying to experiment with Paprika but not entirely sure how or where to use it best!
I love cooking with spinach, freshly picked from my veggie garden!
My absolute favorite ingredient has to be the natural umami seasoning from @shroomshackza Made from shiitake mushrooms, a natural “MSG” it enhances every other ingredient for that wow factor. Being gluten free also means there are less seasonings i can use now as most contain wheat flour – Mushroom seasoning is gluten free, and free of any unnatural products so its better for us too!
love cooking with a drizzle of lemon juice and a dip of olive oil
i cook with garlic all the time!!!
A meal is not complete without GARLIC
Any fresh herbs, especially parsley, oregano and basil
I love cooking with wild mushrooms, i think they bring out such nice flavours in foods…ok ok and its because i just love mushrooms.
Gosh: basil, extra virgin olive oil, hard Italian cheese, plain yoghurt, any kind of nuts, wine are all regulars in my kitchen. If I had to pic just one, I LOVE to cook with sambel oelek, a chili paste I discovered a little while back, gives everything a little extra something special!

Corriander is also great… generally fresh herbs are fab
I love to use garlic in food. I normally put the whole garlic, with the head chopped off, in a little ramekin with some oil in the microwave for about 20 seconds. And squeeze the flesh out into mash, or whatever else.
After not eating red meat for almost 12 years I recently discovered Ostrich and I’m in love. I’m still learning how to cook it properly, but I find it very tasty and I know it is healthy.
I love adding lemon juice from a freshly picked lemon from the tree in my front garden. Not many things beat the smell of a freshly picked lemon. That, and anything fresh growing in my veggie patch. Unfortunately the peas are just too delicious to make it onto the table. It gets eaten straight of the plant
I love cooking with cheese, pasta and fresh vegetables.
I love cous cous or working with herbs! hmm now I am getting hungry!

I’m a seasonal vegetables fan – so anything local is lekker. Right now, I’m on a baby spinach addiction.
The humble, often-forgotten wonder that is parsley – so much more than a garnish!
Love to use garlic butter. It adds so much flavour to any dish.
This will be awesome to win, can use some new recipe`s
My two ingredients I love using: Garlic or Butter
I love to use honey
Difficult to choose only one! Pressed I would have to nominate two – garlic & ginger.
Latest obsession is beets. Made roasted beetroot pesto the other but love them in salads, cakes and juice.
When one’s passion is food and cooking, it’s so difficult to choose just one ingredient! I’d have to go with fresh herbs, particularly Basil, and my most recent delight, Vietnamese Coriander!
Forever in search of that deep umami flavour but need light meals for the summer so ripe exotic tomatoes!
Chillies! And vanilla
Love to cook with garlic!

Choosing a fav ingredient is like a parent saying one child is their favourite. I love cooking with onions and any others from the bulb family. The taste, sweetness, crunch of an onin is divine.

CHEESE!!! I love cooking things that I can either add cheese while cooking/baking or just adding all the cheesy delight afterwards
