Every Peruvian household has its own Crema de Ají, a condiment named for the South American word for chile peppers. Tarí Crema de Ají, an earthy, creamy, and slightly spicy commercially made version, has become mine while I'm away from Peru and studying in the States. Added to everything from sandwiches to scrambled eggs, its flavors—aji amarillo (yellow chile peppers), onions, garlic—for a moment at least take me home.

Tarí Crema de Ají, $10.00 for an 85-gram bag at Amazon.com
