Steps
- 01
Wash and trim radish, cutting into roughly 5 mm matchsticks. Separate white and green parts of scallion; prepare onion and garlic.

Combine about 1.4 L rice-rinsing water, dried shiitake, kelp, onion, scallion whites and garlic. Bring to a boil then simmer around 10 minutes.
- 03
Remove the shiitake, slice them, and discard the other stock aromatics. Stir in 2 tbsp doenjang, using a sieve if a smooth broth is preferred.
- 04
Add radish and sliced shiitake and simmer around 10 minutes until radish is translucent and tender when pierced.
- 05
Add green scallion tops and simmer about two minutes. Taste and add a little soup soy sauce only if needed.

Before you cook
Check soybean and possible wheat in doenjang and soup soy sauce. Use clean later rice-rinse water rather than the first dirty rinse, or plain water; cook promptly. Refrigerate leftovers within two hours and bring to a full simmer when reheating.
