Lim Sung-geun's Pork and Cod Stew

A refreshing, spicy cod stew with rich umami flavor, made without soybean paste or gochujang—instead using fermented anchovy sauce and soybean paste for a clean, bright taste, enhanced with pork for added depth.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Since fermented anchovy sauce can look messy if left whole, always crush or finely chop it before adding.
  • To eliminate fishy odor completely, thoroughly remove fins, gills, and scales; optionally soak in rice washing water mixed with a splash of vinegar.
  • Fish flesh tends to break apart easily during cooking, so avoid stirring frequently to preserve its shape—let it simmer undisturbed.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a deep, rich broth version of cod stew instead of the usual plain fish stew.
  • People who want a clean, refreshing broth without gochujang or soybean paste, avoiding heaviness.
