    I recently read an article about soy sauce being the secret ingredient for a lot of top chefs. They put it in everything.

      Also fish or oyster sauce, sometimes miso. Tomato paste is another.

      All of the above add unami, or “savory” flavor and are generally not perceived outside of that flavor in most dishes.
