Veggie Broth Korean Tofu Stew Recipe - Organika Health Products

This Soondubu Jjigae (Korean tofu stew) is packed with beautiful flavours and nutritional benefits. Mostly because traditionally, us Koreans like to make the most of our stew base by making the broth in low-medium heat filled with radish, anchovy, seaweed, onion, ginger and more. It takes at least 30 minutes to get the most benefits from these magical ingredients and to bring out the flavours. But us busy millennials don’t have the time to sit around and wait for that magic to happen! That is why I’m excited about Organika’s Veggie broth. I was able to reduce the cooking time to 30 minutes in total. Organika’s Veggie broth is filled with vegan-friendly sources of protein, B vitamins and organic vegetables your body craves. The adaptogenic tremella mushroom and nutritional yeast will make every sip worth your while. Oh and did I mention? A little goes a long way, all you need is two magical teaspoons.
