👨🍳 Инструкции
- 1
Prepare the vegetables: Wash the zucchini and slice it into half-moon shapes, about 1/4 inch thick. Cut the tofu into 1/2-inch cubes. Thinly slice the white and green parts of the scallions separately. Mince the garlic.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
Make the doenjang base: In a medium pot, heat the anchovy broth over medium-high heat until it comes to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low. In a small bowl, add the doenjang and a ladleful of the hot broth. Whisk until the doenjang is completely dissolved and smooth. This prevents clumps.
⏱️ 3 minutes - 3
Combine and simmer: Pour the dissolved doenjang mixture back into the pot with the remaining broth. Add the sliced zucchini, minced garlic, and optional onion and mushrooms. Bring the soup to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Do not boil vigorously, as this can diminish the doenjang's flavor.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 4
Add tofu and finish: Gently add the cubed tofu to the pot. Stir in the white parts of the scallions and optional red pepper flakes. Continue to simmer for another 5 minutes, allowing the tofu to heat through and absorb the soup's flavor.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Serve: Ladle the hot Doenjang Guk into bowls. Garnish generously with the sliced green parts of the scallions. Serve immediately with a bowl of rice.
⏱️ 1 minute
