Cooking tips

  • Cooking the somyeon directly in the broth without pre-boiling allows the noodle starch to dissolve into the liquid, creating the signature thick consistency.
  • Besides scallop meat, you can use frozen shrimp or thinly sliced pork belly to customize the broth to your liking.
  • The combination of tuna extract and ssamjang is key to achieving the distinctive savory depth of meat-restaurant-style doenjang jjigae.

Recommended for

  • Those who miss the thick, rich flavor of doenjang somyeon served at Korean barbecue restaurants.
  • Those who want to enjoy a spicy yet savory soup dish in a refreshing way.
