Red Hot! Kimchi Jjigae
- 100 to 150 grams Kimchi (as old and sour as possible)
- 1 Kimchi liquid
- 1 dash Pork (or canned tuna)
- 1/2 sachet Dashi stock granules (dried sardine based)
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 1 Japanese leek
- 1 Ginger
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 dash Enoki mushrooms
- 1 dash Chinese chives
- Slice the garlic, and julienne the ginger.
- Cut the vegetables and meat into easy-to-eat pieces.
- Put the kimchi, vegetables and meat into the ddukbaegi (earthenware pot).
- Add water and start heating (the amount of water should be 3 to 4 times the amount of kimchi.)
- Add the dried sardine-based dashi stock just before the contents of the ddukbaegi (earthenware pot) come to a boil!
- Add the kimchi liquid!
- This is to add richness and depth to the flavors of the soup.
- Put the Chinese chives on top and simmer well!
- At the very least, simmer it until the vegetables and meat are cooked through!
- The earthenware pot conducts heat well, so if the liquid evaporates too much add some water.
- Taste, and adjust the spiciness to your liking!
- When it's as spicy as you want it to be, drizzle in some sesame oil to finish!
- This is delicious with canned tuna instead of meat!
