    I LOVE condiments/dressings. My current favorite is Frenchs Honey Mustard. 10 calories per tsp (1g carb). I put 2tsp on my salmon after I bake it-so good!

    Not sure it's considered a condiment, but these are good seasonings at only about 10 calories per teaspoon.od9wc2q56nu6.png

    Does miso count as a condiment? I use sweet white or hacho miso all the time to add richness and flavor (not to mention salt ;) ) to foods.

    And most of the things others have mentioned: Many vinegars, fermented chili paste, toasted sesame oil, mustard . . . .

    Hot sauce

    It can be used on so many things and mixed into other items to change up the flavors. It's really good mixed in with some ketchup or plain Greek yogurt or sweet chili sauce or BBQ sauce or add a couple drops of sesame oil and some soy sauce, etc.

    So many uses

    As always, I recommend a visit to the Mustard Museum: https://store.mustardmuseum.com/

    Condiments are just about bursting out of my fridge, and now I see this page. I might have to get rid of some condiments to make room for some of these. I see lots of grainy mustards there, which I like. I love Grey Poupon's Country Dijon.

    Oddly, my favorite condiment is ketchup. It can fix nearly anything. :smiley:

    I love Penzey's Greek Seasoning and use it quite a lot.

    It has to be Whole Foods 365 Organic Yellow Mustard. I was never a yellow mustard fan, for me it had to be, well, any other kind. I bought it for my husband who only likes yellow mustard, and out of curiosity, I tasted it. It actually has flavor! It is really good.

    I'm currently binging on berbere seasoning. Yum.

    MMMMM, berbere. My winter breakfast has been Cuban rice & beans with an egg, but with the last batch I used berbere instead - yum!

    Some reviewers complain that this is not authentically Ethiopian; others disagree; some say Ethiopians add more heat; I have no basis for comparison and love it.

    Ingredients
    Paprika, Sea Salt, Cayenne, Fenugreek, Coriander, Cumin, Black Pepper, Cardamom, Cinnamon, Clove, Ginger, Turmeric (all organic but the salt)

    Directions
    Suggested Use: Combine 1 cup uncooked lentils, 3 cups water, 1 lb cooked meat or tofu, 2 Tbsp seasoning, 14.5oz diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil, simmer about 1 hour, or until lentils are tender.

    Plain old iodized sea salt is just enough sometimes too
    Wasabi sauce once in a blue moon
    Dieted way too hard using Frank's red hot (can't bring myself to consume...memories, lol)

    Tajin... great on eggs, avocado, veggies. I also love apple cider vinegar. Freshly squeezed lime juice is also delicious.

    My homemade Ranch sauce. Great on veggie burgers, salads, fries, wraps and sandwiches, potato skins and it's a tasty dipping sauce. I also use the herb and seasoning combination on plain popcorn.

    The calories are good too and it's very flavorful, but not overwhelming.

    Sriracha.

    Same here for me. I make these sauteed pork tenderloin cubes and usually always use Sriracha to finish the dish.

    Rice Wine Vinegar.
    90% of the time when I am craving sushi (which is 90% of the time), it is actually this stuff my body wants.
    I use it on my salads and also in my water. I run out of it constantly.

    Olive Oil
    I have weaned myself down to no more than a tablespoon per meal since I just discovered it is so loaded with calories. I prefer extra virgin and I used to have a half cup of it with half a baguette, a fist-sized ball of fresh mozzarella cheese and a salad every day for lunch. I realllllllllly miss eating this.

    Mustard- any kind, but especially the typical type placed next to the ketchup.

    Lime- it makes cold water addictive adds zest to any food and an extra pop to salads.

    Kimchi - it is difficult for me to get this, so when I do, I try to use it as sparingly as possible. It completes a meal when I am limited on time or side dishes. It also seems to make anything seem more hearty. I have added it to soups (when I all I had was frozen broccoli and a bit of cooked ham- one of my favourites now), salads, rice, etc.
