Steps

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

Add the tofu to the doenjang and mix evenly.
Grind the shiitake mushroom and garlic together.
Soak the seaweed thoroughly.
Put the shredded dried pollock, ground shiitake mushroom, and garlic in a pot and simmer gently to make a broth.
Cut the konjac into flat slices and blanch in boiling water.
Remove the pollock from the broth, grind it with the tofu doenjang, pour it into the broth, add the seaweed, konjac, and perilla seed powder, boil for about 20 minutes, and season with fish sauce.

💡 TipMixing tofu into the doenjang reduces sodium.
