Cooking tips
- Using a 4:1 ratio of doenjang to gochujang balances the richness of doenjang with the sharpness of gochujang, creating the ideal savory and spicy broth.
- If you find the texture of whole dried shrimp too firm, blend them in a blender until fine and use 1 tablespoon of powder instead—this gives a clean, deep flavor.
- Avoid using soy sauce to adjust seasoning, as it can make the broth cloudy; use salt instead to maintain a clear, refreshing taste.
Recommended for
- Those seeking a refreshing, spicy soup that clears the mind and soothes the soul.
- Home cooks who want a fail-proof, golden-ratio doenjang soup with deep, satisfying flavor.
- Anyone craving a morning soup where spinach and seafood flavors harmonize beautifully.
