Cooking tips

  • The squid skin releases a refreshing and deep umami flavor into the broth, so it's recommended to cook it with the skin on.
  • Too much perilla oil can make the soup greasy. Use exactly 1 tablespoon (based on a tablespoon for rice) for stir-frying.
  • The foam that rises to the surface during boiling contains a lot of umami. Don't skim it all off initially. Lightly skim off any remaining foam just before serving for an even tastier soup.
  • A small amount of ginger removes the characteristic fishy smell of squid and elevates the soup's flavor to a more refined level.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a deep, savory, yet refreshingly clear soup that soothes the soul.
  • Those who want to try making a Squid and Radish Soup with a special umami flavor, enhanced by perilla oil and ginger.
  • Those looking for a simple yet satisfying hangover dish to help them recover after drinking.
