Craving Hot Soup in Cool Weather? Try Tuna Kimchi Soup

As temperatures begin to drop, craving something warm, tangy, and spicy? On October 26, World Journal shared a Korean-style tuna kimchi soup recipe adapted from food blogger Pear Kitchen. According to the contributor, the dish takes about 20 minutes to prepare, making it a convenient option for anyone looking to cook a simple meal at home.

The main ingredients include canned tuna, Korean kimchi, tofu, onion, green onion, and chili peppers. The recipe recommends using well-fermented kimchi with a pronounced sour flavor, paired with tuna packed in oil. The oil from the tuna can can also be used to sauté the vegetables first.

To prepare the soup, start by sautéing the onion, green onion, and chili peppers until fragrant. Add Korean chili powder, tuna, and kimchi, then stir-fry briefly. Next, pour in hot water and add minced garlic, seasonings, and tofu. Let everything simmer so the tofu absorbs the tangy, spicy broth. Serve with steamed rice for a satisfying meal.
