Doenjang (Soybean Paste)Korean soybean paste, at Korean markets or online. Miso is milder and sweeter — workable in a pinch, but use a little more.
Sesame OilChoose toasted (dark) sesame oil from the international aisle — light cold-pressed sesame oil won't give the same aroma.
TofuAny supermarket tofu works — pick firm for stews and stir-fries, silken for soft soups.
