Fermented soya bean

Mass only; no spoon/count conversion.

Nothing truly replaces whole fermented beans' funky texture; fermented soya bean paste is closest.

• 
  Fermented soya bean paste

  Use the same weight, mash smooth. Saltier and less chunky; reduce added salt and sugar slightly.

• 
  Black bean and garlic paste

  Use the same weight, rinse if very salty and mash. Garlicky and salty; reduce garlic and salt elsewhere.

• 
  Soy sauce

  Use 25% of the weight. Gives salt and umami but no bean texture; add towards the end.
