What can I add to or do to make marmite edible?

So I used to like marmite when I was little but now as an adult I think it's nasty but I brough some to try it but it's so disgusting, so salty and the other taste I can't describe is just foul. I can't possibly have anymore to finish the jar, it's just not edible. I don't like wasting things and it was really expensive so want to finish it but can't as it is. Is there anything I can add to it or a recipe where you can't taste it that I could try. Otherwise I'll have to bin it and throw my money down the drain

Have you got friends/neighbours who like marmite? Shove the jar towards them, I'd say. I agree marmite is foul lol

I think there was a marmite bread roll recipe I've tried from my school, kind of like cinnamon roll but with marmite. It borders on tolerable.

No unfortunately no one in my family likes it and I don't associate with any neighbours to know if they like it.

I did actually see some different flavoured marmite in Tesco ages ago not sure if they still have them, there was a peanut butter one and I can't remember the others. I didn't try them so don't know if they were any good.

It really is foul even a tiny bit goes a long way lol, I don't know how I liked it as a kid or how other people love it 🤮

Sounds interesting but time consuming, I don't think I'd have the time to bake 🍞

mmm I love marmite :tongue:

try putting a spoonful into a cottage pie (the mince/lentil or whatever component) or other stews/sauces
marmite pasta
marmite and cheese puff pastry pinwheels/twists/cheese straws
marmite and peanut butter on toast/bread is also very nice. as is marmite + peanut butter + jam + banana if you're feeling a little rogue hehe

Toasted crumpets with marmite and cheese are pretty nice. You could probably replace the crumpets with bread too.

I love the stuff but i second putting it in to cottage pie or shepherd's pie it adds a nice richness to the sauce also try it with cheddar it’s something different i personally like it on toast bread with lots of butter but that’s just me.
