Sundubu Jjigae (순두부찌개) Korean tofu stew
My mother long ago worked for several years in Seoul and had introduced me to this tofu stew. It's a simple dish as far as that goes. The normal soup base is supposed to be what they call myeolchi dashima yuksu (멸치다시마육수), a kelp and anchovy broth. I have substituted Japanese kombu dashi with no trouble, even used katsuobushi dashi at times. Seafood of various types, such as clams and shrimp is usually mixed in, and I've even seen pork slices added. 🇰🇷🫕🍄🐚🦑
