Improves the flavour?

like salt and pepper does?

does it have a taste/flavour of its own?
I've never tried it by itself...it's just a thing....

you are correct tho, salt and pepper do it to some dishes...sugar to many...even vinegar to a vindaloo.

It just enhances the flavours mate...Many hate it..

I could probably knock up a different thai/chinese dish each day for at least a few weeks.....

mid you have to put that in your Chinese/Thai dish then you haven’t done it right. It’s what makes all the glue like sauces in Chinese takeaway food here in U.K.

That's the potato/corn starch that does that.

I had msg in my egg fried rice yesterday. Not sure what it added tbh.
Most likely couldn't tell because the curry sauce overpowered the rice.

min China yes, here in the U.K. they add MSG. That’s why the dishes are salty as hell and like glue.
