Cooking tips

  • Thoroughly wash the chicken's innards under running water to prevent any gamey smell from the broth or meat.
  • If using a free-range chicken, which has firmer meat than regular chicken, you'll need to increase the cooking time and the amount of water.
  • Soak the gochugaru for the sauce with hot water or broth, not cold water, to prevent a raw chili powder taste and ensure it mixes smoothly.
  • To keep the chives crisp, blanch them in the hot broth only until wilted and immediately remove them to prevent them from becoming tough.
  • Adding soaked rice to the remaining rich chicken broth and seasoning with salt to make chicken porridge creates a perfect nourishing meal.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a hearty and wholesome nourishing meal for the whole family during the hottest days of summer.
  • Those who want to try a special dish with a spicy and tangy special sauce and vegetables instead of regular baeksuk.
  • Those who enjoy the combination of tender chicken and fragrant, crisp chives.
