- Sesame OilChoose toasted (dark) sesame oil from the international aisle — light cold-pressed sesame oil won't give the same aroma.
- SesameToasted sesame seeds are in the spice or international aisle; raw ones just need a quick toast in a dry pan.
- Soy SauceAny supermarket soy sauce works here; low-sodium versions swap in 1:1.
