The umami pasta of your dreams is made with staples like mushrooms and miso for a flavour-packed dinner in just 15 minutes!

This will be your next weeknight dinner hit!

This creamy miso pasta tastes out of this world with bursts of umami flavours from mushroom, miso and a slight cheesy flavour from nutritional yeast. It’s definitely a weeknight win if you’re planning to cook up something.

What do I Need?

And this dish doesn’t require any cream or nuts!

This recipe mostly uses pantry staples but if you like making creamy pasta, I would definitely recommend stocking up with pasta (obviously and gluten free if required), various herbs, spices, and nutritional yeast. But here’s a deeper breakdown:

  • pasta – you can use any kind but spaghetti, linguine and fusilli are great options I have tried with. Gluten free brown rice pasta works too.
  • mushrooms – I used brown swiss mushrooms but I find shitake is pretty flavourful as well.
  • miso paste – you can find this in most Asian stores. Do check if it’s vegan and gluten free, the organic ones should be.
  • spices – chili flakes, garlic powder, onion powder, nutritional yeast, black pepper.
  • rice wine vinegar – you can substitute this with lemon or lime juice.
