Is there such a thing as too much garlic?

[@MUSIC1LIFE1LUV]

No such thing!

[@srixmessup]

Garlic should be measured with the heart.

[@toregister8615]

Never!

[@VivBeyer1111]

NO !!!!

[@met3839]

Beautiful recipe and there is nothing like too much or too little garlic now its as per one’s liking I’m your new subscriber ...definitely follow mommy tang hopefully you guys can connect

[@tblizzi1369]

I made this today and it was delicious. One change I made is to bake the tofu instead of fry it. That way you don't have to deal with the hassle of putting it on a cooling rack and getting rid of the excess oil. What I did is put the tofu pieces into a ziploc bag, shake up some corn starch into it, then add oil and shake that up in the bag too. Then bake at 400F for 30 mins

[@maifrank6048]

That CRUNCH - You ain't playing around! This looks DIVINE! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe and making such a beautiful video to go with it!

[@TheKoreanVegan]

[@hats1941]

Made this last night.... sooooo good. I am still thinking about the garlicky, spicy, and a little bit sweet sauce. Truly magical.

[@merci.petras]

Your voice is literally so soothing! I came here to have something to look at because I was a little upset, and now I am a lot happier, thanks to you!

[@katlegomafotsa8242]

I tried this yesterday and it was all the flames. This recipe has definitely changed my life. Thank you so so much.

[@lindar6151]

I made this 3 times in under 1 month. It is THAT good. This recipe is better than anything you could get in a restaurant IMO. Kudos to you!

[@naveerakhan9622]

Such an addictive dish, I've made this 4 times in 2 weeks! Tofu is crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside and that sauce is spicy yet irresistible, plus it's super easy to whip up.

[@georgeluckhurst509]

I made this yesterday! Never have I been so so happy with how a meal turned out. Better than any take-out. Lovely recipe, thanks!!!!!

[@alisonkim7349]

From one Korean vegan to another, thank you SO much for your videos and for the time you put into veganising recipes we grew up with. Happy belated 추석!

[@arianpierce]

The sauce was amazing but tofu was crunchy but no taste. Watched video multiple times. I would like to make again but can I perhaps season potato starch before frying tofu?

[@lubnabintimohammadsharif4771]

@@arianpierce go ahead!! i seasoned the potato starch with salt, pepper, paprika and herbs!! it turned out great :)

[@ms.deecookingjourney5567]

I made this dish the other night and it was so good. My tofu did not make that crunch like yours but it was not soft. I really enjoy your stories along with your great dishes. I new to the vegan world and still trying to find my way. Thank you so much for life stories. Keep them coming.

[@rashmisarin7876]

I tried the recipe and loved it. I doubled the sauce and it was perfect. I used what I had at home so for Mirin I used balsamic vinegar & used yellow onion instead of red loved it! Thanks for a simple & delicious recipe. I also added about half a cup of thinly sliced broccoli

[@ThePlataf]

I made this last night. Doubled the garlic and reduced the syrup to 2 tsp. It was heaven! Thank you.

[@LollysGarden]

So Yummy. Made it for dinner tonight. Had a headache all day and didn’t feel like cooking. Decided this was quick and easy. I cheated and used my air fryer for the tofu. Will make extra sauce next time to smother the rice. Thanks so much for a quick, easy and seriously delicious dinner 💜

[@kentigar]

so excited to have discovered you! I have been dying to find Korean cuisine in a vegan format. beautiful photography and love your personal touch!

[@Maiasatara]

In my house 7 cloves of garlic IS a normal amount lol. (Part Portuguese.) I’m glad I found your channel because I have everything you use in my pantry already. I typically get smoked tofu (because it’s super-firm without draining) and I think either that or tempeh (minus the starch) would be delicious in the same sauce. Even if the tempeh was less crispy.

[@floridadivorce]

I’ve made this recipe dozens of time! It helped me during the beginning stages of not eating animal products. Thank you so much! I cook the tofu in the air fryer spraying it with Pam.

[@111nitya]

Made this recipe for this evening for dinner and OH MY GOD! It took me less than couple of minutes to get it all together and steam some rice. The minute I tasted it, I was on Cloud 9. I couldn't comprehend how it was so simple to make and yet, so amazingly delicious? Anyone reading this comment, please make this! If you don't have the ingredients, it's worth it to buy it to just make this recipe.

[@emilyr8668]

literally nothing is better than this recipe.... i constantly crave it lol when i have all the ingredients ill make it like 3x a week

[@RobSymington]

Just tried this for the first time and it’s a winner!! For anyone in the UK, it works perfectly with ‘cornflour’ instead of starch, still crunchy. Also subbed honey in for maple syrup and it was yum! Top recipe 🤙

[@Looksthatkale]

This looks like a solid recipe! I love the way you film. I can't wait to try this out.

[@CourtneyCollings95]

I just want to say THANK YOU for just being you! You have such a beautiful spirit and I found you originally on tik tok. My boyfriend and I love Korean food and we are both vegan-it’s wonderful to have found you for inspiring and authentic recipes. Thank you thank you. I cannot wait for your cook book!

[@LHopp]

After having cooked this recipe for so many times I can say this method and recipe is by far the best. Totally changed my attitude towards Tofu. Thanks so much!

[@CaptainTrips6]

This is the first Korean dish I've made. I can confidently say that it's the best tofu I've ever tasted. Thanks so much for the recipe!

[@kimdokkyu]

This was “insane delicious”! I am so thankful for all your awesome recipes.

[@shreyaarora129]

This video needs more views because this recipe is bomb

[@MS-gm2lr]

OMG I just did this now with a few alterations: chilli flakes instead of gochagaru, 3 garlic and a knob of ginger both minced. Normal onion as I did not have red and one tbsp of honey and 1 tsp of brown sugar instead of maple syrup. OMG the bomb! Absolutely delish. Will try other recipes. Thank you!

[@divinitymystic3481]
