Cooking tips 💡

• Slicing the radish thinly allows the fresh, crisp flavor to infuse into the broth quickly and reduces overall cooking time.
• Never season the soup before cooking the bean sprouts—adding salt too early causes moisture loss and makes them tough. Season only at the final step for crisp texture.
• Mincing the shrimp paste finely ensures its savory umami flavor evenly distributes throughout the broth, enhancing both depth and refreshment.
