Cooking tips
- The main source of fishy odor in yellowfin tuna bones and heads comes from residual blood and impurities. Blanching them in boiling water and thoroughly scrubbing under cold water ensures a clean, clear broth.
- Adding just a small amount of doenjang to the seasoning paste effectively neutralizes the fishy taste and adds a deep, savory richness to the broth.
- Skim off any foam or blood residue that rises to the surface during boiling carefully with a spoon—this ensures a clear, fresh, and non-greasy broth.
- For home dining, keep the soup warm on a tabletop burner and enjoy it slowly. Leftover broth is perfect for homemade noodles or instant ramen.
Recommended for
- Those who want to make a restaurant-style spicy, refreshing soup at home without any fishy odor.
- People looking to perfectly cook leftover yellowfin tuna parts (head and bones) after buying sushi.
- Those seeking a hearty, spicy, satisfying soup ideal as a companion for drinkers.
