Description
I am a big fan of Korean food. Besides bimbimbap, bulgogi, and kimchi pancake, there is another dish that I like very much. That is the Korean soybean paste soup.
Soybean paste soup is a popular everyday dish in Korea. It is typically served in a hot earthenware pot and made with assorted vegetables, red meat or seafood and fermented soybean paste.
With the help of fermented soy bean paste – a classic seasoning in Korean cuisine, it is very easy to make this dish at home.
Above is a picture of the paste. It’s available online and in every Korean grocery stores. After opening, keep it in your fridge and seal properly, it will last at least six months or even longer.
Similar to hot pepper paste (Gochujiang), fermented soybean paste is a very thick and concentrated condiment. It can be added to stir-fries, stews, and soups for adding savory flavor. A few tablespoons’ worth usually goes a long way.
Other than meat or seafood, onion, zucchini, enoki mushroom, potato and tofu are the most common ingredients people like to use when making a soybean paste soup.
Serve this comforting dish with a bowl of steamed rice and a side of kimchi for a delicious for your next homemade meal. And if you are a vegetarian, simple omit the meat or seafood from this recipe.
