Equipment

1 medium stockpot
1 stove
Electric Cooker You can prepare this dish using an electric cooker if you're short on time.

Ingredients

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 6 cups water, Anchovy Stock (here), or vegetable stock
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 3 cups soybean sprouts, washed, and roots trimmed if desired
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon gochugaru (optional)
  • 2 scallions or chives, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  • In a medium stockpot over medium heat, sauté the garlic in the sesame oil for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add the water (or stock), soy sauce, bean sprouts, and salt, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes, or until you can smell the strong odor of bean sprouts cooking. Skim the foam off the top while it’s cooking.
  • If you’re making the spicy version, add the gochugaru 5 minutes before turning off the heat.
  • If you’re using scallions or chives, add them to the pot at the end and then immediately take off the heat.
  • Serve hot.

Notes

SUBSTITUTION TIP: This is a perfect soup to serve as a side dish because it’s so light, but you can make it heartier with beef or tofu.
