Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings
- moderate amount of tender mugwort
- raw bean flour 5 tablespoons
- dried anchovy stock packet 1 piece
- water 1L
- misso 1 tablespoon plus 1/2 (about 15g)
- ginger a little
- green chili pepper 3 pieces
- red chili pepper 1 piece
- tuna extract 2 tablespoons
Recipe 🍳
- Soak tender mugwort in cold water for 10 to 15 minutes, then rinse thoroughly and remove excess moisture.
- Place cleaned mugwort and 5 tablespoons of raw bean flour into a plastic bag, fill with air, and shake gently to evenly coat.
- In a pot, add 1L of water and one dried anchovy stock packet, then bring to a boil to extract a rich broth.
- Once boiling, add 1 and 1/2 tablespoons of miso and a small amount of ginger to eliminate any off-flavors and dissolve well.
- Gently drop the bean-flour-coated mugwort into the broth and simmer briefly.
- Add sliced green chili pepper (3 pieces) and red chili pepper (1 piece), adjust final seasoning with 2 tablespoons of tuna extract, and cook for another 3 minutes to finish.
- Wash mugwort thoroughly, then toss in a plastic bag with raw bean flour until evenly coated.
- Boil water with the dried anchovy stock packet to make broth, then dissolve miso and ginger.
- Add the bean-floured mugwort and chopped chilies, adjust seasoning with tuna extract, and cook for 3 more minutes.
Cooking tips 💡
- If the mugwort is tough, blanch it quickly in boiling water, then cool in cold water for about 5 minutes before use to soften.
- Too much miso will overpower the fresh aroma of mugwort; use it only as a base for umami, and rely on tuna extract to balance seasoning if needed.
