Lee Hye-jung's Dakbokkeumtang

A dakbokkeumtang made by removing the chicken skin and stir-frying with soju to eliminate grease and off-flavors, then simmering with potatoes and perilla leaves.

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Removing the chicken skin and stir-frying first with soju reduces greasiness and thoroughly eliminates any gamey odors from the meat.
  • Cutting the potato edges round prevents them from breaking apart during simmering and keeps the broth clear.
  • Adding perilla leaves at the very end and letting them cook gently in the residual heat, like shabu-shabu, preserves their fresh fragrance.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a lean, cleanly seasoned dakbokkeumtang without greasiness.
  • Those looking for a dish where the potatoes stay intact and are simmered to a spicy-sweet finish all the way through.
