Yellow or Red Miso? I just bought some red miso and would love to avoid hitting the store again for this item. Will the flavor be off with the red? U

IMHO, it will be tastier. I prefer red to white. Yes, as Nancy said, it is "stronger", but I think you will like it.

KLS - yes. I also like the red miso better and suspect the questioner will like in this dish.

Red miso is stronger in flavor and saltier than yellow, but and if you like it, go ahead and use it in this recipe.
I would start with half as much as the specified yellow miso, check during cooking and add more red miso to taste.
Also, look at Bon appetit for a good article about different type of miso.
