I have no idea if you have allergies or other problems, but do you know the Chinese condiment Oyster Sauce?
It's like dark brown ketchup and very salty. Like very thick soy sauce.
I adore dipping eggs in it, or drizzling some over sliced eggs.

It's a key ingredient in making really good fried rice too.

I need to make 2 dozen deviled eggs for a meeting on Sunday. I need to get wasabi.

magpie.spouse bought some Oyster Sauce to make a stir-fry thing a while back. Didn't notice any allergy problems at the time. But I do get covered in itchy pink polka dots from lobster, so I avoid it, and I have seasonal and mold allergies.

Have to look in the fridge to see if there is Oyster Sauce still there, and check the Use By date, if it has one. Somethings things that are sufficiently salty keep forever.

Mmmm... deviled eggs.

Depending on the brand, Oyster Sauce doesn't always have oysters in it!
One of my ex bosses could eat fish, but shrimp/crab/lobster caused a reaction.
Use Oyster Sauce when making fried rice! It doesn't make things soggy.
I make wasabi deviled eggs for the meetings. There are never any leftovers!
