I am not a cook.

I'm not sure what this is really called, but it's soft tofu in a spicy clam broth.


12 oz extra soft tofu
3 oz clam broth
1 tbsp sesame oil
1/2 tbsp crushed red pepper (try to use the korean kind)
2 stalks scallion, chopped fine
2 garlic cloves, minced
salt & pepper

Heat sesame oil over medium low heat, being careful not to burn it. When the oil is hot, add red pepper, and fry for a couple minutes until the oil starts to turn red. Add garlic and stir fry until fragrant.


At this point, you could add 2 oz pork belly, for extra flavor. Stir fry pork until thoroughly cooked, then add broth, increase heat to medium high, and bring to a boil. Add tofu, bring to a boil, and boil for a couple of minutes. Add scallion, season with salt & pepper, and serve with some rice.


8/10: I ate nothing but this dish for the past 2 weeks until I could do it right.
