@gagamba9198

If you haven't tried it, here's one you ought to give a go: ssamjang (쌈장). It's gochujang, doenjang (fermented soybean paste), and other ingredients such as sesame oil mixed together. In Korea it usually accompanies leaf-wrapped grilled meat, but I think it's terrific on many other things. It's spicy, salty, and pungent without being excessive in any one of those three - good harmony. If you live near a Korea town try to find homemade rather than the factory-made stuff that's packaged in the plastic tubs. The latter is still very good, but the former is great.

I always tell people if there is only one ingredient I can have if I was to be strand on an island it would be fish sauce. I love fish sauce on my eggs with rice, pepper sauce, pho, curry noodle, fried rice, and so much more. I use the black bean sauce with any bean sautéed and asparagus. Must have tamarin in my papaya salad. I love green tamarin with fish sauce, chili , and garlic.

Up-market fruit/veg vinegar is a surprisingly great shout that I didn’t expect to see. For any U.K. viewers, Womersley makes some of the best fruit vinegars you can buy and they aren’t all that expensive for what you get. They’re acidic but still maintain the sweetness and complexity of the fruit flavours and honestly they’re nice enough to just sip on neat. Would strongly recommend.
