Instructions

1

Wash the chicken thoroughly and blanch it briefly in boiling water. Adding cooking wine helps to remove any odor.

💡 Tip: If you blanch it for too long, it will become tough, so just cook the surface lightly.

About 5 min

2

In a pot, add the blanched chicken, aged kimchi, onion, and potato, then pour in the water. Add red pepper powder, minced garlic, soy sauce for soup, sugar, and pepper, and bring to a boil.

💡 Tip: Adding the kimchi juice enhances the flavor.

About 10 min

3

Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium heat once it starts boiling and cook until the potatoes are tender.

💡 Tip: If the broth reduces too much, add water gradually.

About 60 min

4

Add the green onion and Cheongyang pepper, and boil for another 5 minutes to finish.

💡 Tip: Adding rice cakes or ramen noodles also makes it delicious.
