Baek Jong-won's Pork Leg Bossam

Recipe 🍳

Cooking tips 💡

• Boiling frozen meat directly can trap blood, leading to a gamey smell. Ensure the meat is fully thawed, rinsed, and squeezed to remove blood before cooking.
• Onion skins contain compounds that help eliminate gamey odors and impart a desirable color to the bossam. It is recommended to use the onion with its skin on after washing it thoroughly.
• The instant coffee is a tip for achieving a restaurant-quality deep brown color. Only a small amount is used, so there will be no coffee taste or aroma in the finished dish.
• Do not discard the rich broth left after simmering the meat. Add vegetables and tofu, along with doenjang, to create a flavorful doenjang jjigae (stew) base.
