Baek Jong-won's Fish Cake Hot Pot

Cooking tips 💡

• Using dried anchovy powder instead of whole anchovies allows you to quickly achieve a rich, flavorful broth.
• Adding minced garlic directly can make the broth cloudy, so always strain it through a sieve to extract only the aroma—this is key to a clean-tasting hot pot.
• When folding square fish cakes, avoid folding them in half as they tend to tear easily; instead, fold them into thirds and thread them in a zigzag pattern for better stability.
• If the broth is too light, add more premium soy sauce—but be cautious, as it may darken the color. Adjust seasoning with salt if needed.
