Been holding off on this one until I had some seafood – and now I do. This is a spicy seafood stew called jjambbong – and they tend to be among my favorite varieties from South Korea. I think I found this one at Boo Han Market in Edmonds, Washington across from 99 Ranch Market. Well, let’s begin.
Iga Natural Singil-dong Spicy Jjamppong – South Korea
Detail of the packaging (click to enlarge). Contains shrimp, chicken, squid, beef, pork, and shellfish. To prepare, add vegetables, freeze dried block, and noodles to 400ml boiling water. Cook 3~3 1/2 minutes. Add in remaining sachets. Finally, stir and enjoy!
A pouch of shelf stable fresh noodle.
A sachet of soup base powder seasoning.
A sachet of liquid soup base.
A sachet of vegetables.
A freeze dried block of veg.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added egg, shrimp, scallion, fishcake, sesame seed, and pepper thread. Noodle is soft and thick – just right for this dish. The broth is very muddy which is so nice – robust and deep. A strong seafood flavor with a good seafood flavor. The sheer amount of seafood and veg in this one is truly exceptional of excellent quality. The spicy level is adequate but not overbearing. I will confidently say this is the best jjambbong I’ve ever had. 5.0 out of 5.0 stars. EAN bar code 8809083708481.
