ABOUT
I had BCD soondubu jjigae in NY and i got shocked. I'm not sure if it's because of my home sick or it's really good. But the sure thing is i was thrilled after first taste of soondubu jjigae. Sometime I do crave BCD soondubu jjigae but i'm in Switzerland. So i'd researched every BCD article, video, website. And here is my version of BCD soondubu recipe
INGREDIENTS
Beef bone broth
2kg Beef bone
water
Soondubu
150g dried soy beans
900g water
3g G.D.L
Soondubu sauce
4 tbsp Neutral oil (60g)
2 Green onion
6 tbsp Gochugaru (45g)
1 tbsp Fish sauce (15g)
1 tbsp Soy sauce (15g)
1 tbsp Salt (15g)
1 tsp Black pepper (3g)
Soondubu jjigae
Protein (Pork, beef, mandu, vongole, mussle, shrimp etc)
minced garlic
egg
METHOD
Beef bone broth : soak the bones in cold water for 8 hours to remove blood inside of bone. And blanch it for 5 mins and wash it with water for removing dirty things and bone fragments. And put beef bone into a pot and pour the water until bone is fully covered. And simmer it for 24 hours and add water as needed to keep the ingredients completely submerged. After 24 hours, Boil it for 10 mins to emulsify it and strain it
Soondubu : soak soy beans in the water for 8 hours. After 8 hours, strain it and put it in blender and 900g water too. Blend it and strain it. Solid thing is 'Biji' and liquid is kind of soy milk. Heat the soy milk to 80–85°C (176–185°F) to deactivate the enzymes like Trypsin inhibitors). And mix G.D.L and a little bit of water in a bowl and pour soy milk. And cool it down in fridge. And then you can get soondubu
Soondubu sauce : put green onion in oil and heat it up to infuse green onion flavor into oil. When green onion looks like gonna be burnt, remove green onion from oil and pour the oil over the gochugaru. And add fish sauce, soy sauce, salt and black pepper
Making soondubu jjigae : Put 1 cup of beef bone broth, 1 cup of soondubu, 1 tsp of minced garlic, 1 Tbsp of soondubu sauce and protein into a pot. And bring it to a bowl for 2~3 mins. Taste it and season it with salt. And put egg in the pot. Then ready to eat it :)
NOTES
80% replica of the BCD Tofu House soondubu jjigae
The rich, savory broth is nearly identical to the original, while the soft tofu offers a subtly different texture and flavor profile
