Cooking tips

  • Slicing tofu thin allows seasonings to penetrate quickly, reducing cooking time.
  • Shrimp paste is essential for authentic depth of flavor—using it delivers the true rustic taste of traditional tofu stew.
  • Perilla oil should be added at the end, during the final stage of reduction, to maximize its rich aroma.
  • For those who enjoy a richer, oilier taste, a small amount of vegetable oil can be added at the beginning to create a chili oil effect.

Recommended for

  • Those lacking appetite who need a spicy, tangy side dish to go with rice.
  • People wanting to make a tofu stew in just 15 minutes without the trouble of frying tofu.
  • Fans of the magical combination of shrimp paste and perilla oil seeking a rustic, savory flavor experience.
