Baechu Doenjang Guk: Napa Cabbage Soybean Paste Soup
Baechu Doenjang Guk is a traditional Korean soup made with tender napa cabbage and savory doenjang (fermented soybean paste). This wholesome, everyday dish is beloved for its earthy depth of flavor and its simple, nourishing ingredients.
The soup starts with a base broth, typically made from anchovy and kelp stock, which is then seasoned with doenjang. Sliced napa cabbage is added and simmered until soft, creating a naturally sweet and satisfying broth. Garlic and scallions round out the flavor, and optional additions like tofu or mushrooms can enhance the heartiness of the dish.
Perfect as a side to rice or as a light main course, Baechu Doenjang Guk is a comforting staple of Korean home cooking that warms both body and soul.
