Bean sprout soup(Kongnamulguk), Hangover Soup 콩나물국-Cooking Class

How do you over come hangover after drinking? Is there any typical food that you eat? In Korea, people say that it's always good for your health to have hangover soup after drinking ; Usually on the next day when you wake up. It may sound like we have typical type of food for hangover but it's just a word. So it can be any type of soup that make you feel better.💃

Today I'm going to introduce you one of the beloved hangover soup in Korea. It's Bean sprout soup, in Korean, it's called kongnamulguk(콩나물국).

Prep time : 5mins
Cook time : 10mins

Ingredients : Bean sprouts 150g, Anchovy broth 600ml, Salt 1t, Korean style soy sauce 2T, Green Onion 1/4.

Bean sprouts
The first thing you have to is washing bean sprouts.

Broth
When the water is boiling, put dried anchovy and then boil it for more than 10mins.
You can also make a broth with meat but I prefer anchovy instead because it's mild than the broth with meat.

When you think the broth is ready, put bean sprouts.

Side Note - When you cook bean sprout soup, you have to decide whether to put a pot-lid or not because of the smell that bean sprout contains.

salt in the bean sprout soup
 Put one teaspoon of salt to season to suit.

soy sauce in the bean sprout soup
Put 2 spoon of Korean style soy sauce. Korean style soy sauce is quite different with soy sauce. First of all, since it's only to season it, it's milder than the general soy sauce. So the density would be different.

green onions


Put little bit of green onions. When you cook Korean cuisines, you use garlic and green onion many times, so I contain it in this way.

Beansprout soup boiling
Boil it for 5 mins then taste the soup. If you think it's not salty enough, put little bit more of salt.
