Time 1h9m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 20

6 cups chicken broth
4 (1 inch) pieces kelp
6 dried anchovies
6 ounces sliced pork belly
2 tablespoons Korean red pepper flakes (gochugaru)
1 zucchini, cubed
½ cup chopped onion
½ cup kimchi
2 serrano chile peppers, chopped
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 teaspoon white sugar
2 (12 ounce) packages extra-soft tofu
10 shrimp, peeled
5 mussels
5 clams
½ cup sliced button mushrooms
1 tablespoon minced garlic
4 eggs
2 tablespoons chopped green onion, or to taste

Steps:

  • Bring chicken stock, kelp, and dried anchovies to a boil in a large pot. Cover and cook over medium heat, about 10 minutes. Strain broth, discarding kelp and anchovies.
  • Cook pork belly in a large pot over medium heat until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl; reserve drippings in the pot. Add red pepper flakes; cook and stir until sizzling, about 30 seconds. Return pork belly to the pot. Add strained broth, zucchini, onion, kimchi, serrano chile peppers, ginger, fish sauce, and sugar. Cover and simmer soup until flavors combine, about 15 minutes.
  • Stir tofu, shrimp, mussels, clams, mushrooms, and garlic into soup. Simmer until mussels and clams have opened, about 5 minutes.
  • Break tofu gently into chunks. Ladle boiling soup into serving bowls and crack an egg into each. Garnish with green onions.
