Cooking tips

  • Using fresh, unfermented kimchi won't give a deep flavor, so to achieve a refreshing, rich broth, you must use well-fermented or sour kimchi.
  • Adding too much onion can make the broth overly sweet, so add only a small amount to keep the flavor clean and refreshing.
  • A half tablespoon of fish sauce maximizes the broth's savory depth, and add soy sauce gradually according to taste rather than all at once.
  • After placing the tonkatsu on the broth, add the egg and immediately turn off the heat. This allows the crispy tonkatsu to meld with the soft, moist egg for the best flavor.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a spicy and hearty soup to refresh and cure a hangover.
  • Those who want to quickly make an izakaya-style snack at home with simple ingredients.
  • Those who want to enjoy a hearty one-bowl meal by adding substantial tonkatsu to kimchi udon.
