A clean doenjang jjigae that removes bitterness by first stir-frying the doenjang in sesame oil, maximizing the savory and nutty flavor.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • If the doenjang jjigae tastes bland, adding salt will make the saltiness sharp; instead, adjust with tuna fish sauce for a deeper flavor.
  • If the homemade doenjang you use is too salty, add half a teaspoon of sugar to gently neutralize the saltiness.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a clean and savory doenjang jjigae without any heavy or bitter taste.
  • Those who want to make a deep-flavored broth using only vegetables without meat or seafood.
