Step 1
Heat broth in a large pot over medium-high until steaming, about 3 minutes.
Step 2
Whisk gochujang into the broth until completely smooth and incorporated.
Step 3
Add mushrooms and scallions, then gently break tofu into large bite-sized pieces and slide them into the pot.
Step 4
Bring to a rolling simmer and cook 4 minutes until mushrooms soften and broth starts to bubble.
Step 5
Crack each egg directly into the stew. Cook 2 minutes until whites just set but yolks still jiggle.
Step 6
Drizzle sesame oil over the top and serve immediately in bowls with the broth.
