Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Adding too much kimchi juice can overpower the natural nutty flavor of the jeon, so use it sparingly just for color and aroma, adjusting spiciness with gochugaru instead.
  • Thicker jeon like bindaetang or mung bean jeon should be placed on top of the stew while cooking to maintain their shape and allow for cleaner eating.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to clean up greasy leftover holiday jeon in a satisfying and spicy way.
  • People who want deep, rich broth flavor without spending hours simmering stock.
