📖 The Story Behind This Dish

A creative dish putting the kimchi-and-cheese combo popular in Korea on Japanese atsuage (thick fried tofu) and toasting it. Kimchi's tang and heat, cheese's richness, and the tofu's toastiness combine so three ingredients make a snack or main. Just put it in the toaster, so there's little washing up. Ingredients are kept to a minimum so it can be made with things you're likely to have at home.

🌆 Where it's eaten: At drinking time, cheese bubbles on fried tofu fresh from the toaster, red kimchi peeking through.
