Korean Clear Pork Soup
| New York Pork Gomtang |
Ingredients
- 10 lb / 4.5 kg pork shoulder or pork leg
- 1 large Korean radish
- 1 large onion
- 1 burdock root
- 2 large green onions
- 3.5 oz / 100 g dried shiitake mushrooms
- 20 cloves garlic
- 2 small pieces ginger
- 1 Tbsp whole black peppercorns
- 2–3 Tbsp salt (to taste)
- Water: enough to cover the pork and vegetables (about 15 L / 4 gal)
How to Make It
Step 1
Cut the radish into large chunks. Make a small slit in
the root end of the onion. Slice the peeled burdock root diagonally. Cut the
green onions into large pieces. Add all the vegetables to a large pot.
Step 2
Rinse the dried shiitake mushrooms once and add them to
the pot. Slice the ginger and add it as well.
Step 3
Rinse the pork under running water. Place it in the pot
with the fatty side facing down. Add enough water to fully cover the meat.
Step 4
Add the black peppercorns. Bring to a boil over high heat
with the lid off. When it starts boiling, gently skim off any impurities from
the surface.
Step 5
Cover the pot and simmer over medium heat for about 2½
hours. If needed, skim off excess oil while cooking.
Step 6
Remove the pork first, then take out all the vegetables.
Season the broth with 2 tablespoons of salt, starting with less and adjusting
to taste.
Step 7
Strain the broth once more. For a cleaner broth,
refrigerate it for one day and remove the solidified fat from the top.
Step 8
Wrap the cooked pork tightly and refrigerate for one day.
Slice it as thinly as possible.
Step 9
Serve with firm, not mushy rice. Top the rice with sliced pork, rinse once with hot water, then pour in the hot broth. Finish with sliced green onions.
