If you have a Trader Joe's nearby....
They have two items in their spice section that I highly recommend.
First is their Black Garlic. This stuff is fermented, making it slightly candied and VERY yummy! You can eat it by itself - in small quantity - for a little nibble. Good on all sorts of things, though it may discolor some stuff like eggs.
Next is their powdered mushrooms, labeled as Mushroom & Company: Multipurpose Umami. I normally don't like mushrooms, but this stuff is very useful for adding flavor and lets you sneak it in for people like me who don't like the appearance and texture of mushrooms. Sadly, I thought I'd bought another bottle of this the last time I was in Phoenix, but either I didn't or I can't find it. Either way, I'm pretty much out. Oh, well. We'll be back in Phoenix in February if not sooner.

I also love their cashew/almond milk. :)

I think that would be very good for a soup. I made burgers tonight, and I used both on them and they were excellent!

The container says "ground fermented", I'm not certain what that's supposed to mean.

They're strictly USA, sadly. AWESOME store! We drop $100 or so every time we're at one, but that's because we're stocking up since it's so infrequent that we get to one.
