🍲 Comforting Beef Miyeokguk
🛒 Ingredients
- Main: 20g dried seaweed, 200g beef (brisket is great!)
- Seasoning: 2 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp minced garlic, 2 tbsp soup soy sauce, 1 tbsp fish sauce, a pinch of salt
- Liquid: 1.5L water
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Guide
✨ Step 1: Soak and Prep Seaweed
Soak the dried seaweed in cold water for 20-30 minutes. Do not over-soak, as it will lose its texture! Rinse it thoroughly under running water, squeeze out excess water completely, and cut it into bite-sized pieces.
✨ Step 2: Prepare the Beef
Pat the beef with paper towels to remove excess blood. This keeps the broth clean and prevents any unwanted smells. Cut the beef into small, bite-sized pieces.
✨ Step 3: Stir-fry Beef and Seaweed
Heat a pot over medium heat and add 2 tbsp of sesame oil. Sauté the beef until it's no longer pink. Add the seaweed, 1 tbsp of minced garlic, and 1 tbsp of soup soy sauce. Stir-fry everything together for 3-5 minutes so the flavors blend nicely.
✨ Step 4: Add Water and Boil
Pour in 1.5L of water. Bring the soup to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium-low once it starts bubbling.
✨ Step 5: Simmer for Deep Flavor
Cover with a lid and simmer for at least 20-30 minutes. The longer you simmer, the richer and deeper the beef flavor becomes!
✨ Step 6: Final Seasoning
Add the remaining 1 tbsp of soup soy sauce and 1 tbsp of fish sauce (this is the secret to umami!). Taste and add a pinch of salt if needed. Serve hot and enjoy! 😋
