About Gochujang tofu
Gochujang Tofu is a flavorful dish rooted in Korean cuisine, featuring tofu coated in a bold, spicy-sweet sauce made from gochujang, a fermented chili paste. The tofu, often pan-fried or baked until golden and crisp, is then tossed with the sauce, which typically includes garlic, sesame oil, soy sauce, and a touch of sugar or honey for balance. Packed with protein and low in saturated fat, tofu is a heart-healthy choice that provides essential amino acids and key nutrients like iron and calcium. Gochujang, rich in probiotics from its fermentation process, adds depth of flavor and beneficial compounds, though it can be high in sodium. This dish is often paired with rice and vegetables, providing a balanced, plant-based meal. While mildly indulgent due to its sugar and oil content, Gochujang Tofu is a nutritious option for those seeking bold flavors and wholesome ingredients.
