Koreans are known for their love of hearty and healthy soups, and this classic Dwenjang Jjigae (대장찌개) is no exception! 🌟 This traditional Korean dish is not only simple to make but also packed with flavor and nutrients.

To start, gather your ingredients: firm tofu, zucchini, potatoes, onions, mushrooms, and some fresh green vegetables like spinach or scallions. Don’t forget the star ingredient—Korean soybean paste (Dwenjang)! 🍜 Begin by heating some sesame oil in a pot and sautéing the chopped onions until they’re soft and translucent. Add water and bring it to a boil before adding the Dwenjang paste. Stir well to dissolve it completely, creating a rich broth.

Now, add your veggies one by one according to how long they take to cook. Finish off with the tofu and let everything simmer together for about 15 minutes. Just before serving, sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds on top for extra crunch and aroma. 💛

This soup is perfect for a comforting meal any time of the year. Enjoy it with a side of steamed rice and kimchi for a complete Korean dining experience!🍚🍚
