Recipe 🍳

  1. Slice the prepared kimchi sausage and Spam into bite-sized pieces, and chop the onion, green onion, and cheongyang chili peppers into small pieces.
  2. Slice the tofu into thick, even slices.
  3. In a wide, deep hot pot, layer the onion on the bottom, then neatly arrange the sausage, Spam, green onion, cheongyang chili peppers, and tofu around the edge. Place the baked beans in the center.
  4. Add the gochugaru, minced garlic, soup soy sauce, and Dasida over the ingredients to create the seasoning base.
  5. Pour the beef bone broth and enough water along the edge of the pot to just cover the ingredients. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium heat and simmer until the flavors meld together.

Cooking tips 💡

  • If using regular store-bought sausages, finely chop half a cup of well-fermented old kimchi and add it to the stew to achieve a similar refreshing and deep flavor.
  • Baked beans are an essential ingredient that gives budae jjigae its characteristic nutty and rich broth, so it is highly recommended to include them.
