Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Pre-pickling radish in soy sauce helps it absorb flavor better and prevents it from falling apart even after prolonged cooking.
  • Remove heads and guts from stock-making anchovies, then microwave for 20 seconds to effectively eliminate fishy odor.
  • Since perilla seed powder can cause the broth to bubble over easily, reduce heat and cook uncovered to avoid overflow.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a soothing, rich, and smooth healthy meal.
  • People looking for a light, comforting meal or nutritious refreshment.
  • Anyone wanting to enjoy the balanced, refreshing, and creamy texture of shrimp paste and perilla seed powder in a savory broth.
