It's because the recipe is that easy.
The whole recipe adds up to just 10 ingredients and 69 words of instruction, which is shorter than my weekly horoscope and definitely more favorable. Just heat some oil, add some scallions, ginger, and garlic, pour in the chicken broth , whisk in gochujang and soy sauce, then add daikon, then the kimchi and tofu, simmer, aaaaaaand done.

The recipe calls for firm silken, but I always go for the softest stuff just because I love how its extra-creamy lusciousness adds a complementary texture to the mix. I’ve also worked in some glass noodles, topped my bowl with an egg yolk, and sprinkled over sesame seeds. These last-minute additions add almost no time at all.
Whether you improvise with a few added touches or not, it comes together so quickly and easily that there’s reallyso good to slurp, with its elemental deliciousness, fermented wholesomeness, and nose-drip-inducing kick, that it never feels like a last resort . So while I can never quite predict when my no-dinner-plans panic will strike, I can breathe easier knowing I’ve got two flavor-packed ingredients in my fridge and this two-stanza recipe memorized.
