About Spicy tofu stew

Spicy Tofu Stew is a hearty and flavorful dish inspired by traditional Korean cuisine, commonly known as "Sundubu Jjigae." This savory stew features silky tofu, vibrant vegetables like zucchini and mushrooms, and a protein-packed blend of optional additions like seafood or thinly sliced meat. The base is a spicy gochujang or gochugaru-infused broth enriched with garlic, scallions, and sesame oil for added depth of flavor. Nutritionally, it offers a high-protein, low-calorie option rich in plant-based nutrients from tofu and antioxidant-packed vegetables. The spice level not only adds flavor but may also boost metabolism. However, note that sodium levels can be high if not moderated in the seasoning. Pair it with a side of steamed rice for a balanced, satisfying meal.
