>gf is south east asian
>she has left to see her family
>suggest me to cook some meal from her country
>one of the ingredients is shrimp paste
>buys some from the nearby Asian marked and goes home
>opens it
>"OOOOOH MY FUCKING GOODNESS WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT SMELL"
>tells her over chat the shrimp paste is spoiled
>"lol no it's supposed to be like that"
>try to make the meal with it
>couldn't eat much because I couldn't stand the smell
Neighbors actually thought there was a dead cat in their garden, that's how bad it smelt apparently
>gf comes back, and tries to use the shrimp paste again for some meal
>this time it doesn't really smell so bad
>it actually tastes pretty decent
And nowadays, I almost always have to add shrimp paste to everything seafood related that is from Maritime South East Asia
How does this meme-ingredient work, from smelling like a corpse the first time you sniff it, into becoming a crucial flavor?

Roast it first, then smash it in with small chili peppers and shallots. Can't get enough desu

By roast, I mean you can simply cut a block and place them beside an open stove or place them near source of heat. The smell ahould lessen then.
Grind it witb those two ingredients, and eat witb white rice.

It doesn't smell bad to me any longer
I even occasionally sniff the glass before adding it
Maybe the first time, it had some shitty gasses in it
>>
I can't eat any kind of rice without shrimp paste
I too found it like poison the first time I smelled it, but now the aroma is necessary for most of the stuff I cook

>left to see her family

Smells rank.
Tastes awesome.

It's because you associate the taste with your girlfriend, now. Associating something with sex is a powerful way to overcome revulsion, at least when you haven't just orgasmed within the last few minutes.

> True story, worked in a Chinese restaurant one day they decide they are going to cook with shrimp paste for the nightly cooks/server meal. Smell is unbelievable, I literally check the restrooms to make sure there is not a clogged overflowed toilet. You couldn't pay me to eat that. I've eaten Durian without even wincing.

>Tastes like shrimpy Vegemite, and delicious
They can fuck off with their secret club bullshit.
