Those are just examples of condiments used in very small amounts to give the food a better taste. Thaini is blended sesame seeds, miso is fermented soy and rice.
They have been made for thousands of years and are an example of minimally processed tasty condiments with high nutritional value, but 95% of the caloric value of the meal is the veggies not the condiments.
Pea protein extract is in comparison a much more heavily processed food.
Heating does impact the bioavailability (ease of absorption) of the nutrition in food, for some things it increases it while for others it decreases the nutrition.
We have evolved to eat cooked food for about 2 million years, our gut and teeth/jaw is adapted to cooked food.
Grains are also OK, but veggies and fruit are even better, the best cooking method is steaming to avoid forming carcinogenic compounds, that can be produced also by roasting in dry heat.
