Umami-rich, MSG-free Yashi Gourmet Wing sauce tastes sweet and sassy, with a surprising frisky kick from “secret” chiles. Not surprisingly, yashi means “playful child.” Rich, dark brown and thicker than molasses, the sauce isn’t just for chicken wings, though branding it as such is what got Yashi onto the shelves at Whole Foods and AJ’s Fine Foods. Try it as a glaze on baby back ribs, add a spoonful to baked beans, or marinate a filet of grilled fish. People will beg you for the recipe. ($5-5.50)
