How to Make Korean Seaweed Soup

Traditionally, this soup is served to new mothers for postpartum healing since seaweed is an excellent source of calcium, iron, fiber, and iodine, which help the body recuperate after giving birth.
Koreans also eat this soup on their birthday to respect and remember their mother’s love, but people enjoy it on normal days too.
Typically, this soup is made with beef, mussels, or dried shrimp. I personally like to make it with potatoes and dried pollack.

[@margsfooddiaries9687]

Thank you for sharing this seaweed soup, liked it.

[@KoreanMomsTable]

미역국은 나중에 육수만 남을 때 감자를 넣고 끓이면 맛있는 국물을 잘 활용할 수 있는데 황태채와 감자를 같이 넣고 끓이니 더 맛있겠어요.

[@yikunsun2554]

Can't wait to try thanks for sharing!

[@fsirlancelot4337]

Hi there Maangchi, love love love your video... I tried a variation of your recipe... I cut the beef and added Soy Sauce and Corn Flour / Maizena, garlic and ginger... Fried that up and added water to it... then put in the Seaweed, mixed that with the steak and onion and let it cook for 1/2 and hour... tastes delicious. Thank you. Can you show us how to make pork buns please? Thank you xxx

[@MAKM18]

[@moonbunniee6050]

Thanks for the recipe? It looks simple and nice. Is it okay to use shredded squid? As I can't find shredded pollack in my local market

[@rachelcoleman4693]

What can I use in place of dried pollack? Can't find it where I live.

[@violettevbunni9508]

Beef

[@jasonpaul2196]

Dried pollack and potato in seaweed soup?? Never seen it before.

[@steffyweffy1508]

Dried pollack is not available for me. Is there any substitute?

[@KoriandrOfTheStars]

Beef. Chicken. Oysters. Prawns. Mushrooms. Tofu. Tilapia. Canned or fresh Tuna

[@archidoshi1184]

Hi, I know this is dumb but I want to try eating more seaweed but the smell kinda gets to me so it there a way past that?

[@drteshamnaicker199]

Can you use nori sheets for the soup?

[@monibasri7870]

Where can i buy that kind seaweed..

[@marisa0313]

How long should I soak the seaweed?

[@MuzikeraMeg]

Is there an alternative for dried pollack? Or can i skip this?

[@unkindguy88]

hi, yes you can use any kind of protein with the soup. Most use beef but you can also use seafood like mussels. cheers!

[@michellechuah37]

What is that in a packet???.?

[@Makeup_tutorial_asian]

This is traditional birthday soup.

[@rachmayra]

Can I use seaweed sheet that is used for making kimbap?

[@mayluvswn]

oof i wonder that too :(

[@danaliu3295]

No, that's a different type of seaweed. Plus it's pressed together really tight. You can try though, it still should taste okay.

[@rachmayra]

@@danaliu3295 oh ok thankyou

[@janaamrengechel4240]

No. It has to be kelp

[@istvanjegels3024]

Music so sad.

[@areebaqayum8143]

You can use halal meat

[@garrysekelli6776]

Seeing potatoes in asian cooking is disturbing.
