Ingredients:

  1. 3 tablespoons - gochujang
  2. 2 tablespoons - soy sauce
  3. 1 tablespoons - chicken or vegetable boullion paste
  4. 1 tablespoons - sugar
  5. 2 teaspoons - fish sauce
  6. 1 - 14 oz block firm tofu, drained
  7. 1 - small white or yellow onion, cut into 1/2" thick wedges
  8. 4 - garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
  9. 4 tablespoons - unsalted butter, cut into pieces, divided
  10. 1 teaspoons - toasted sesame oil

Directions:

Step 1
Whisk 3 Tbs gochujang, 2 Tbsp soy sauce, 1 Tbsp chicken or vegetable bouillon paste, 1 Tbs sugar, 2 tsp fish sauce, and 1 cup water in a medium high sided skillet to combine.

Slice one 14 oz block firm tofu, drained, in half lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 6 sections to create 12 squares. Arrange in pan in a single layer (you can shingle slightly if needed.) Scatter 1 small white or yellow onion, cut into 1/2 inch thick wedges, 4 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped, and 1 Tbsp unsalted butter, cut into pieces, on top. Set pan over high heat and bring to boil. Cook, spooning sauce over tofu occasionally, until sauce is reduced by about a third, 5-7 minutes.

Step 3
Remove pan from heat. Add 1 tsp. toasted sesame oil and remaining 3 Tbsp unsalted butter, cut into pieces, and stir gently and swirl pan until butter is melted and incorporated into sauce.

Step 4
Crush seasoned toasted seaweed snacks into large shards and scatter over tofu. Serve with cooked rice alongside.
