Bibimbap (pronounced "bee-BIM-bop") is a traditional Korean dish, with bibim meaning "mixed" and bap meaning "rice." This beloved Korean bowl typically includes steamed white rice with assorted fresh, marinated, and sautéed vegetables. Any garden veggies could work well with Bibimbap, so have fun experimenting with your own fresh and nutritious produce if you’re growing your own.

These bites are fun and simple to make and can be used as an appetizer or a protein-rich addition to a grain bowl. If you can, marinate the tofu ahead of time (more time in the marinade means more flavor!). Then when you’re ready, pop them in the oven, toaster oven, or Air Fryer for a tasty and satisfying snack. The bites have lots of flavor with just the marinade alone so omit the Bibimbap Sauce if spicy isn’t your idea of plant-based eating fun.

This sauce is a delicious addition to your recipe library, not to mention a tasty topping for the Bibimbap Bowl or stored in the fridge to use as a veggie dip or marinade for tofu. Make it less spicy by using tomato paste in place of gojuchang. Spicy or not, we see a lot of this sauce in your future.
