Lim Sung-geun's Spring Onion Doenjang Guk

Cooking tips 💡

• To remove moisture and off-flavors from dried shrimp during storage or transport, microwave them for 1 minute or dry-fry in a pan—this makes the broth significantly richer and more savory.
• Avoid adding doenjang directly to the broth without straining, as undissolved lumps can be chewy. Straining it through a sieve ensures a smoother, cleaner texture.
