Heat sesame oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add chopped vegan kimchi, garlic, and Gochujang flakes. Sauté for 2 minutes.

Pour in vegetable broth, then stir in the Gochujang paste. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Add soft tofu and half of the chopped green onions. If you have mushrooms, add them now.

Simmer for 10 minutes. Serve hot, garnished with green onions, sesame seeds, and an optional raw egg yolk.
