A gourmet stew piled high with freshly ground, nutty soybean sprouts and fragrant perilla shoots, layered over a spicy and savory gaejang base

Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Since both doenjang-based gaejang broth and soybean sprout paste are made from beans, they create a much more cohesive and harmonious flavor profile than regular kimchi sprout stew.
  • The soybean sprout paste tends to sink to the bottom and burn easily, so stir the pot occasionally with a spoon during cooking to prevent scorching.
  • Perilla shoots and green onions lose volume when boiled, so it’s best to add them generously—fill the pot to the brim for maximum flavor and texture.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a richer, smoother, and deeply savory twist on traditional spicy gaejang, thanks to the addition of soybean sprout paste.
  • Individuals who want to enjoy a healthy, protein-packed meal featuring abundant soybean sprout and fragrant perilla shoots alongside hearty bone-in meat.
