Method

Heat vegetable oil in a large soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add mushrooms and onion and season with salt. Cook, stirring often, until tender, 5–7 minutes. Stir in anchovies and cook 30 seconds, then pour in stock. Bring to a boil, add clams, and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook, covered, until clams open, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer clams to a bowl; set aside. Discard any clams that haven’t opened. Whisk gochujang into broth and increase heat to high. Add tofu and cook until warmed through, about 1 minute. Stir in clams, scallion greens, chiles, and sesame oil and season with salt and pepper.
