Chadolbagi Doenjang Jjigae

Authentic Korean beef and soybean paste soup by Traiteur Soora
Sogogi Doenjang Jjigae is a traditional Korean stew that combines the rich flavours of fermented soybean paste with tender beef. Enriched with a variety of vegetables and tofu, this dish makes for a balanced and nourishing meal that is much loved in Korean homes.
Key features:

• Tender slices of beef: thin slices of beef are simmered to perfection, adding depth and flavour to the broth.
• Fermented soybean paste (Doenjang): it provides a savoury base rich in umami, which is both thick and full of flavour.
• Fresh vegetables: including ingredients such as courgettes, mushrooms and onions, which enhance the texture and nutritional value of the stew.
• Add tofu: the soft cubes of tofu soak up the flavourful stock, creating a delicious contrast in textures.
