Vegetables

Spices and Seasoning

Method

Preparing the Broth

  1. 1

    Cook the Beef

    In a large pot, combine the beef brisket and water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Skim off any foam that rises to the top.

  2. 2

    Add Aromatics

    Add the minced garlic, sliced ginger, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Simmer for about 1.5 hours, or until the beef is tender.

  3. 3

    Remove and Slice the Beef

    Once the beef is tender, remove it from the pot and let it cool. Once cool, slice into thin strips and set aside.

Cooking the Soup

  1. 4

    Add Vegetables

    To the broth, add the chopped green onions, sliced carrots, sliced mushrooms, and bean sprouts. Simmer for about 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  2. 5

    Season the Broth

    Stir in the Korean red pepper flakes (gochugaru) and sesame oil. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 6

    Add Spinach and Beef

    Finally, add the spinach and the sliced beef back into the pot. Let it simmer for another 5 minutes until the spinach is wilted.

Serving the Soup

  1. 7

    Serve Hot

    Ladle the hot soup into bowls and garnish with additional chopped green onions if desired. Enjoy your Yook Ge Jang!
