Steps

Translated from the Korean original. Amounts are as in the original recipe.

  1. Soak the clams in roasted salt water to remove grit.
  2. Add the low-sodium doenjang and clams to 400g of water to make the broth.
  3. Blanch the spinach, remove the moisture, and finely chop it.
  4. Julienne the carrot, onion and green and red chili peppers, and slice the zucchini and potato into half-moons.
  5. Make dumplings (oksimi) with the chopped spinach and flour.
  6. Add the oksimi to the broth and boil, then add the remaining vegetables to finish.
💡 TipVegetables rich in potassium reduce the sodium in the doenjang, and the clam blanching water is not discarded but used so that its savory flavor replaces saltiness.
