Description

A hearty and flavorful beef brisket soup with rice cakes and savory elements.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 cups water
  • 1 lb beef brisket
  • 2 stalks green onion (sliced into 2-inch pieces)
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons soup soy sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 lb sliced rice cakes
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 sheet seaweed (thinly sliced)
  • 2 stalks green onion (thinly sliced)
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Bring soup to a boil. In a large pot, add water, beef, garlic, and green onion, and bring to a boil. Skim the scum off the surface. Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to medium, cover, and continue to cook for 30 minutes.
  2. Make egg garnish. While the broth is cooking, heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a small pan over medium heat. Pour in the whisked egg yolk, then lift and tilt the pan to spread it across to form a thin crepe. Cook on both sides and transfer to a cutting board. Roll the egg and thinly slice it.
  3. Slice the beef. Remove the beef and let it rest for 10 minutes before shredding into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Add seasoning and rice cakes. Then add soy sauce, black pepper, sesame oil, and rice cakes. Cook the rice cakes until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Serve. Garnish with the egg strips, seaweed, and green onion, and enjoy.
