Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Do not add salt when boiling bean sprouts, as it will make them tough—boiling without salt ensures crispness.
  • Always use roasted seaweed to eliminate any fishy odor and bring out its rich, nutty flavor.
  • Since ice melts and dilutes the broth, season slightly stronger than usual at the end.
  • Using plum syrup instead of sugar adds to the flavor and clean finish of the cold soup.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a refreshing and clean-tasting soup on hot days.
  • People curious about the proper technique to preserve the crisp texture of bean sprouts.
  • Home cooks looking to repurpose leftover roasted seaweed into a unique cold soup.
