Strange ingredients?
Do you have any secret ingredients that you use that people don't know about and may consider it strange? What's your secret weapon?

I've really bought into "umami" and starting to use ingredients that boost savory flavor. Like a couple finely chopped anchovies in beef stew or porcini powder in sauces and on steaks.

Both are great for adding depth!

I use Worcestershire sauce a lot in meat, especially ground beef. I generally stay away from soy just because of the sodium (and the low sodium tastes like ass), but it's a great addition.

Try the amino acids fake soy sauce. My wife likes it but I'm not a fan of any soy. Tou can get it at smiths/fred meyer.

I use Worcestershire in ground beef in just about every recipe. I have some Soy Sauce, but use it sparingly.

Worcestershire sauce is awesome! I love it with beef, either for chili, tacos, burgers, or on steaks. I use it in marinades and with dishes I use beer in as well. I use it with my chicken fajita marinade, too, but have key lime juice and cider vinegar mixed in.

I honestly don't know what umami is so I'll start with that. I think it just means unique flavors. And the most unique ingredients are in Asian food. I don't really know what I'm doing yet, but I've experimented with some of these ingredients you'd find interesting.

For staples, miso paste, Korean red pepper paste, dashi/bonito flakes. For spices, Chinese five-spice, Korean red pepper, anise all have really unique properties.

Lots of interesting dried ingredients at an Asian grocery store. Dried mushrooms of every kind. Dried shrimp.

Vegetables, I started putting perilla in lots of things. Gives a different bite to everything.

Finally, food substitutes. Fish sauce for salt. Sesame oil for olive oil. Kimchi for sauerkraut or relish.

Umami is savoriness. It's a major component of Asian food, but not strictly Asian by any means. Foods that boost umami are high in glutamates, so a lot of what you listed are umami bombs.
