A TRADITIONAL HOMEMADE KOREAN SOUP RECIPE
Nothing beats a steaming bowl of comforting soup once the weather cools down. Gamjatang or Korean Pork Bone Soup/Stew was one of our favorite soups we used to order out when we were living in a bigger city. We didn’t grow up eating Korean food but it immediately felt like comfort food to us the first time we tried it.
If you’ve never tried Korean Pork Bone Soup Gam ja tang before, you are in for a real treat. It is considered a traditional Korean dish with its distinct hearty and rich flavors.
After we moved away to a smaller town, I decided to learn how to recreate this homey dish and after making this recipe for two years now, I can honestly say it’s our family’s favorite.
Be sure to set aside an entire afternoon if you are following the recipe exactly – or split it up and start the prep work the day before – the results are amazing and will definitely satisfy your Gamjatang craving.
TIPS ON MAKING KOREAN PORK BONE SOUP
Most people might get frightened after seeing the amount of ingredients and time it takes to cook (the pork bones require 2 hours of soaking in water and around 2 hours for simmering).
I’ll be honest, this soup does require some patience and tolerance and is a medium level of difficulty to cook but trust me when I say your efforts will be well worth the reward waiting for you.
If you have never tried Korean Pork Bone Soup, I urge you to either order it at a local Korean restaurant first to see if you like it (it used to cost around $6.99 where we lived) or set aside a day (4-5 hours) to make this delicious dish.
I now make large batches of the broth and freeze them flat in freezer bags so that we are able to enjoy this great comforting dish anytime we want.
