Instructions

  4. 4

    Add radish first and cook 6 minutes, then add zucchini and garlic.

  5. 5

    Add sea squirt and simmer only 3 minutes to preserve its ocean aroma.

Tips

Do not overcook sea squirt; short cooking keeps its signature aroma.
Straining doenjang keeps the broth smoother and cleaner.
