Replacement for yeast extract?

[caroline7758]

Is there anything I might have in my store cupboard which might do instead of yeast extract in a veg & bean stew?

Soy sauce?

worcestershire sauce?

mushroom ketchup - only need a few drops or Marmite

[pippy]

I thought Marmite WAS yeast Extract?!

[Barnowl]

Assuming that by yeast extract you mean Marmite, then how about a veg stock cube - they nearly always include yeast extract - plus some of the other suggestions to add some welly?

If anchovies are ok they'll dissolve and lose all their fishiness but add a good depth of flavour.

Thanks- posted a bit too late so did it without and it was fine- might add a bit of soy sauce next time.
