Instructions to make Dwenjang Guk (Spicy, Hearty Korean Style Miso Soup):
- Put the stock, water, onion, garlic, dwenjang, gochujang, sugar, meat and any extruded veg into a large pot (fresh veg goes in later). Bring to a boil, covered, over medium high heat (should take 15 minutes or so)..
- Once it's come to a boil, turn the heat down to medium low and simmer, covered, for another 20 minutes before adding any fresh veg and tofu..
- Simmer another 10 minutes or so, then adjust the seasoning for salt. If you've added fresh veg and/or tofu, you will almost certainly need to adjust for the water they will release into the soup..
- Simmer another 15 minutes with the lid askew, adjust seasoning one last time if needed, and that's it!.
- If you want to have it with rice, you'll want to put the rice on to cook when you leave the soup to simmer the first time..
- It's always yummier with kimchi. Here's my kimchi recipe (which of course you would have to have made days to weeks in advance): https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/1567994-kimchi-easier-than-you-think.
- EXTRUDING LIQUID FROM GREENS: Just wash the greens, sprinkle them with salt, and let them sit for a couple of hours, tossing them 2 or 3 times during the process, letting the salt draw the moisture from them. After they've released the excess liquid, just give them a good swish in a big bowl full of clean water, and squeeeeeeeze all that liquid out. You can then freeze the greens for future use, or refrigerate them for 2 to 3 weeks before using..
