Recipe
Cooking tips
- When making stock, briefly microwave the dried anchovies and shrimp to remove moisture and strong odors—this step is key to achieving a clean, subtle flavor foundation for the stew.
- Sautéing doenjang in the vegetable oil gives it a rich, nutty aroma and eliminates the raw fermented heaviness typical of uncooked doenjang, enhancing both body and sweetness in the final dish.
- Always use very low heat when cooking doenjang in oil to prevent burning or scorching. High heat can cause the seasoning to harden or burn quickly—be careful to avoid this.
Recommended for
- Those who enjoy doenjang jjigae with shepherd's purse and littleneck clams.
- People curious about how to enhance flavor by first sautéing doenjang.
