Number 2. I'm amazed you have this in the states. I live in Sheffield, Emgland where we have our own version - Henderson's Relish, which is of course far superior. But it is only available in Sheffield - we have to carry it ourselves to other parts of the country.

#2!! and a personal favorite of mine - I sometimes throw a splash in the most unexpected things to give a little flavor boost!

Can't live without this W! We put it in all kinds of things, even cooking shrimp with it - it's delicious.

2. I must have brain fog this morning. I got it on the third try then almost smacked my head - duh! It's always in my pantry although I confess that I don't think to use it very often.

#2. Have you tried it in guacamole? It adds a nice zing to it, along with a little garlic.
