Yoon Yi-ryeon's Honghap-tang (Mussel Soup)

A refreshing and clean-tasting mussel soup made by boiling mussels and surf clams in rice water

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Mussels often have a lot of debris on their shells, so scrub them vigorously to ensure a clean and refreshing broth.
  • Adding surf clams or Manila clams when boiling enhances the savory depth and clean taste much more than using mussels alone.
  • Since the clams release their own saltiness, don't season at the beginning; adjust with salt only at the end.
  • Clam soup becomes tough and the meat falls out of the shells if boiled too long, so turn off the heat as soon as they open.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to soothe their stomach with a refreshing, clear broth.
  • Those who want a deeply flavored clam soup with simple ingredients.
  • Those looking for a dish to serve guests or a light drinking snack.
