Lemon or lime. Juice sprinkled over at the end of cooking, and zest
either then or earlier in the cooking. This is often used to provide
a little zing in low-salt prepared foods. Recalling a recent thread,
I'd suggest you also might try a shake or two of msg (Accent). If you
do, season with it while cooking, not at the table. -aem
