Cooking tips
- Washing the onion thoroughly and adding it with the peel to the broth will give the soup a appetizing brown color and effectively remove any unwanted odors.
- To keep the bean sprouts crisp and prevent them from becoming tough, add them to the boiling broth and remove them as soon as it comes back to a rolling boil.
- Lightly greasing the inside of the ramekin with sesame oil before adding the egg will prevent it from sticking, allowing for easy removal of the poached egg.
- To perfectly replicate the deep flavor found in restaurant dishes, using MSG and anchovy flavored seasoning in the recommended proportions is key.
Recommended for

- Those who want to replicate the deep, savory flavor of Jeonju-style kongnamul gukbap at home.
