Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Store-bought soybean paste should be boiled briefly to taste good, but traditionally made homemade soybean paste requires long, gentle simmering to develop its full depth of flavor.
  • Spinach or island spinach will lose texture and color if overcooked, so it’s best to add them only at the final stage, just long enough to lightly cook.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a comforting, rich, and deeply satisfying country-style home soup that soothes the stomach.
  • Those who want to experience the unique sweet-savory harmony of seasonal island spinach and the refreshing umami of fresh red shrimp.
