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.
