Sundubu: A Lesson in Heat


I love Sundubu. I love the glistening globules of Chili Oil.

I love the creamy, contrasting soft tofu.

I love putting just the yellow egg yolk (I leave out the white) into the boiling broth and watch it poach in the rich, spicy liquid.

I love how it makes me sweat afterward.
