This Yassa Chicken Seasoning Blend ($7 and up) contains an aromatic mix of chili powder, toasted ground mustard, granulated garlic, toasted ground ginger, lemon zest, and other flavorful herbs. Originally from Senegal and now popular throughout West Africa, yassa is a spicy chicken or fish dish prepared with sautéed onions.

I have this Vietnamese Three Crabs Brand Fish Sauce ($12) and I use it to make a pan-fried sea bass dish I learned from Pierre Thiam's Senegal book. It packs a punch and adds an excellent flavor to fish.
