Lee Yeon-bok's Soft Tofu Shrimp Soup

A warm hangover stew with deep umami from kelp and shrimp, and texture from scrambled eggs and soft tofu.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Cutting kelp into small pieces helps extract umami more quickly in a short time.
  • Do not boil kelp for more than 5 minutes, as it can make the broth cloudy and slimy. Remove it promptly.
  • Adding raw egg directly to the broth will make it cloudy. Scrambling the eggs in oil first keeps the broth clear and adds a nice chewy texture.

Recommended for

  • For those looking for a non-irritating hangover soup to soothe the stomach after a night of drinking.
  • For those who want to make a deep, refreshing umami soup with simple ingredients.
