Potato, carrot and tofu Japanese curry. Super basic but it's got legs. Made about a week's worth of dinners with this batch.

    Yes RNA! Well, at least the one I am talking about is Golden Mountain brand and the ingredients says

    Flavor enhancer (Disodium 5' - ribonucleotides)

    It's basically the remnants of broken down proteins which gives it the umami taste. I would say kecap manis might work as a sub, or maybe make a caramel simple syrup and mix it around 1:1 with a light soy sauce or tamari.
