Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Using rice washing water instead of dried anchovy stock reduces the strong aroma typical of cheonggukjang and results in a much smoother broth.
  • Using pork mince (minch) ensures the meat flavor spreads evenly throughout the broth, creating a rich and clean taste.
  • Do not add cheonggukjang at the beginning and simmer for too long, as prolonged boiling can dull its aroma and make the broth heavy; it’s best to add it midway through cooking, once the radish is fully cooked, and gently simmer.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a mild-smelling, fragrant, and clean-tasting cheonggukjang stew.
  • Those who want to finish a whole bowl of rice with just one steaming bowl of stew.
  • Those seeking the foolproof balanced ratio for restaurant-quality cheonggukjang stew.
