Ttukdak Hyung's Restaurant-Style Doenjang Jjigae

Cooking tips 💡

• Sautéing doenjang seasoning in oil before adding water reduces greasiness and enhances the rich, restaurant-style depth of flavor.
• A small amount of dried anchovy dashi quickly enhances the missing savoriness in the broth.
• Cooking in a clay pot helps retain warmth on the table, making the broth taste even richer over time.
• Adding chun-dolbachi or sliced pork belly allows the meat fat to melt into the broth, creating a richer, more savory texture.
