Gomguk

Gomguk is a traditional Korean beef soup made with tender beef slices and clear broth.

Ingredients

  • Cooked rice (4 cups)
  • Eggs (4)
  • Green onions (4, chopped)
  • Sesame oil (1 tablespoon)
  • Salt (1 teaspoon)
  • Soy sauce (2 tablespoons)
  • Garlic (4 cloves, minced)
  • Water (8 cups)
  • Beef brisket (1 pound, thinly sliced)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, bring the water to a boil.
  2. Add the beef brisket slices and boil for 5 minutes to remove any impurities. Drain and rinse the beef.
  3. Return the beef to the pot and add the minced garlic, soy sauce, salt, and sesame oil. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, until the beef is tender.
  4. While the soup is simmering, cook the eggs to your desired doneness (hard-boiled or soft-boiled). Peel and set aside.
  5. Once the beef is tender, remove it from the pot and slice it into bite-sized pieces.
  6. To serve, place a portion of cooked rice in each bowl. Ladle the hot soup over the rice and top with the sliced beef, chopped green onions, and a cooked egg.
  7. Serve hot and enjoy!
