Kim Dae-seok's Lettuce and Grape Cold Soup

Recipe 🍳

Cooking tips 💡

• To remove fine particles or stubborn residues on the grape surface, soak the grapes in flour water for about 10 minutes before rinsing.
• For a natural fruit flavor in the cold soup, use small, seedless 'Delaware grapes'—they are easy to eat and perfectly complement the dish.
• Raw onions can be sharp; if you're sensitive to heat, soak the sliced onion in cold water for 5 minutes to reduce its pungency before adding.
• After cooking, ice melts and dilutes the soup’s seasoning, so prepare the base slightly saltier than usual to maintain balance.
