Sundubu Jjigae (Korean Soft Tofu Stew). Sundubu Jjigae is Korean stew made with soft (uncurdled) tofu. As you can imagine, the tofu texture is silky soft and because of that, this tofu is also a popular choice as a baby food.

It's hot, spicy, filling, comforting, delicious, soft tofu stew and has many reasons to be one of the most popular items in Korean restaurants.
