Subj : Soups & Stews - 14 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Fri Nov 25 2022 16:13:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Toranguk (Korean Taro Soup) Categories: Beef, Seafood, Vegetables, Soups Yield: 4 servings MMMMM---------------------------STOCK-------------------------------- 1 lb Beef brisket; in 3" wide - chunks 1/4 c Dried anchovies 1 (3") square of dashima (kelp - seaweed) MMMMM-------------------------SOUP BASE------------------------------ 3 tb Soy sauce 2 tb Fine chopped garlic 1 tb Sesame oil 1/2 ts Fresh ground black pepper 2 tb Chopped scallions; garnish MMMMM----------------------------TARO--------------------------------- 1 lb Fresh taro; peeled, in 1" - cubes 1 ts Kosher salt PREPARE THE STOCK: Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the brisket and boil, occasionally skimming any debris off the surface with a spider skimmer, for 7-8 minutes. Turn down the heat to medium to maintain a rolling boil, and cook until the beef is fully cooked through and tender, about 1 hour. Turn down the heat to low to maintain a simmer; stir in the dried anchovies and dashima, and cook until the dashima softens, about 10 minutes. Using the spider skimmer or slotted spoon, remove and discord the anchovies and dashima, leaving the brisket in the stock. Remove from heat and set aside to cool to room temperature. PREPARE THE SOUP BASE: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, garlic, sesame oil, and black pepper. Set aside. Using a spider skimmer or slotted spoon, remove the cooked brisket to a cutting board, reserving the stock in the pot. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then tear the brisket into bite-size pieces; transfer to a medium bowl. Pour the soup base over the brisket, using your hands to massage the sauce into the meat. Set aside. PREPARE THE TARO: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the taro and salt, then cook at a boil until the outside is soft and the inside is just tender, about 10 minutes. Set a colander in the sink, then use tongs to transfer the taro to the colander and rinse under cold water until cool. Bring the stock back to a boil over high heat. Stir in the cooked taro, seasoned brisket, and any remaining soup base. Return to a boil and cook until the flavors have all mingled, about 3 minutes, then turn down the heat to medium and cook at a rolling boil until the beef is tender and warmed through, about 5 minutes more. Remove from the heat. Divide the soup among serving bowls, with generous portions of taro and brisket in each bowl. Garnish with the scallions and serve hot.
