Greetings from Germany. Finally an excellent recipe for DoenJang! I just made it with the ingredients I had at home (frozen zucchini, dried shiitake, vegan "sensational" burger patty, tofu, pre cooked potatoes, onion, garlic, gochugaru flakes and of course DoenJang) and it was delicious! I never had a good recipe for the paste, but if it tastes soo good with these ingredients, it will be amazing with fresh ones! I will try this again after my next shopping trip. Thank you Helen!
If I could give this video a hundred thumbs up, I would. Made this for dinner tonight because somehow I had all the ingredients in the house. So delicious and comforting.
One recommendation for the tofu is to freeze it before using it, the water inside the tofu will expand and allow for the sauce to soak into the tofu better and adds much more flavor. When cutting it, make sure that the tofu isn’t completely thawed out so that when you lay it out on a paper towel, the water drains out instead of being absorbed back into the tofu. I always keep a pack of tofu in the freezer for this reason
I tried it, but forgot to add minced garlic. It was still very good. Love it. I can imagine it would be even better if I added garlic! Thanks for this.
Love your videos! New subscriber here, I sub to you via your kimchi video bc you are so attentive with the instructions of the recipe and you do the mukbang so deliciously I cannot not follow you after seeing it. 진심으로 감사합니다 헬렌님 ❣️
From the UK here: what is it about imported Japanese and Korean tofu? 😋 The star of the show when I make any kind of jjigae...unlike the truly awful stuff most English supermarkets commonly sell. When the Korean companies (hopefully) get distribution deals with the main supermarkets here, it's game over for the other brands. You can't fight Korean soft power, they are the masters of winning people over and the technique is entirely their own. With a promotional campaign launched at the same time as the product goes into mainstream distribution, well Cauldron, Naked and the other brands can kiss it goodbye. Either that, or up their game to meet the new standard. Korean tofu is so delicious that you don't need to be a tofu connoisseur to immediately taste the difference. I make Doenjang Jjigae every couple of weeks, we love it. Of course, I will now make it your way and destabilise the foundations of my entire house-- secure the fine china! It'll be worth it. 😄🍜
Yes! I LUV Korean tofu💚. There are many kinds of tofu from other Asian cuisines. And more and more local companies are making tofu as healthy food options. I have had some locally made tofu that were pretty good. Hopefully some local company near u can make delicious tofu soon🙏

@@JC-oo1im Yay🙏. Yes, adding garlic does wonders, as it is essential to most Korean soups/stews.

I'm curious. Why do we need to remove the mushroom stems? I love all the parts of a mushroom.
This looks so good and I'm gonna make a pot for tomorrow's dinner. What is the name of the other popular jigae you mentioned in the end of the video?
Thank you Humble Bear! Please check the description box of this video for the other suggested recipes.
