Cooking tips 💡

• Use fresh beef brisket and marinate them in sesame oil beforehand—this allows you to achieve a rich, clean flavor without needing to remove excess blood or grease during cooking.
• Avoid relying solely on soy sauce for seasoning, as this can make the broth overly dark and heavy. For a cleaner, more refreshing taste, use soy sauce only for aroma and adjust the rest of the seasoning with salt.
• Toasted seaweed tends to clump when mixed directly into the broth, so cut it finely with scissors just before serving and gently fold it in—this maximizes its savory, nutty effect.
