- RadishKorean radish (mu) is at Korean markets; daikon from any Asian grocery is the closest everyday swap.
- Green OnionKorean large green onion, at Korean markets. Elsewhere use the white parts of several scallions, or a mild leek.
- Soy SauceAny supermarket soy sauce works here; low-sodium versions swap in 1:1.
- TofuAny supermarket tofu works — pick firm for stews and stir-fries, silken for soft soups.
