Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Adding a bit of soybean paste enhances the dish’s rich, earthy aroma and helps balance any fishy undertones while deepening the overall flavor.
  • Avoid boiling rapidly; instead, simmer on medium-low heat until the daikon is completely tender so the seasoning penetrates evenly.
  • For even better flavor, let the stew cool completely after cooking, then reheat the next day—the flavors will be more deeply infused.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make the best rice side dish using affordable and easily available ingredients.
  • People who find fish preparation tedious and prefer a convenient way to enjoy stewed dishes using canned fish.
