I found the exact miso paste used in this recipe at my grocery store in Japan and just used a packet of awase dashi with no additives. It was great! These recipes are seriously helpful because of the recommendations of specific brands and types of ingredients to use. Otherwise I’d just use the dashiiri miso paste and call it a day, not knowing all the health benefits I was missing out on.

Hello, Graham. Thank you so much for taking the time to read Nami’s post and try her recipes.
Unfortunately, there is no suitable substitute for Miso. You may flavor it with soy sauce or try a different soup, such as Osumashi.

Another recommendation is to look for Miso at online stores.

Hi, there. I’m eager to try this version of Miso Soup, but am unable to find any miso paste in my local shops – even the big supermarket where I used to buy it! I know it’s hardly miso soup without the…er…miso – but what do you recommend as a substitute for miso paste?
