This soup is another recipe which is very delicious and easy to make. When you boil this soup, the aroma is irresistible. : ) If you like spicy food and soup, this is the perfect food. You don’t need any other side dishes when you eat this soup, but you need to serve it with rice. If you want to eat this soup and rice with a few more side dishes, don’t skip kimchi! : ) I usually dump my warm rice into the soup. Ummm!
I filmed this video recipe with Mina when I visited Copenhagen, Denmark for my Gapshida project. Mina is a great cook and has a blog named Copenhagen Kitchen. We made a huge portion for our meetup party that night, and everybody who came to the party enjoyed the soup and asked for the recipe. So this soup will be a great choice for those who have to feed many people like I did in the video. 50 people or 100 people, no problem! Soup and rice, that’s all you need! But if you want to do more, serve with kimchi and more side dishes.
