I really love teriyaki chicken but am unable to make it at home because teriyaki sauce I buy at the market-- even if it's low salt-- tastes nothing like what the restaurant I frequent uses. It's kind of a spicy, sweet glaze and for the life of me, I am unable to find it in a bottle.

My problem is that it comes in a 2 pack of large bottles. It takes me months to use one bottle so I buy it less than once a year. I have no idea what brand it is.

I could probably pick up a gallon of it but it wouldn't be worth it-- I guess I'll stick to takeout

Far too many years ago a take out place had delicious teriyaki wings. I couldn't afford take out much so I developed my own recipe that was pretty close.

Unfortunately the take out place is long gone and I lost my recipe in a move, but it is possible to come close.

I have found recipes online-- just that I haven't tried them.

Teriyaki wings-- literally is making my mouth water!!

However the all time best tandoori I had was in New Delhi and Bangalore.

I like putting them together -- brings out my Inner Alchemist/Witch ...

Whole Foods' paste is a good one; if the recipe doesn't include some lemon juice, give it a try on the next batch you make. And naan bread? Oh hell yeah---wouldn't think of doing without it.

The Whole Foods spice gives the recipe but includes vinegar... I will take lemon juice any day over vinegar.

The recipe from the web also calls for mined ginger. Was not going to mince it myself so substituting ground ginger from the spice shelf is fine with me.

I am not a cook. I need to follow recipes, yes, for the 1/8th of a teaspoon... But prefer the ones with fewer ingredients.

Good stuff, I use it all the time. Lasts for a long time when refrigerated.

I think that in the past years it eliminated many products from its inventory.

The one near our house has a wide variety of imported rice (brown and white), umpteen varieties of tea, all sorts of spice mixes and individual spices, dried beans and legumes and more. This is where I went to stock up on beans and rice at the beginning of all this because we wanted to be prepared in case food shortages developed.

Let's see: biscuits, candies, desserts, sauces, cooking equipment, Bollywood; you can even wire funds.

This shop has supplies for Middle Eastern cuisine as well. I can find the rice my daughter's mother in law uses there (it is the rice preferred by Persian cooks; if you are interested it has a leaping antelope on the bag. )

It is amazing how many items are available in that relatively small building.

Everyone is very helpful, prices are reasonable and if you are lucky there will be hot samosas from the bistro next door.
