Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare the Harim Nurungji Chicken Soup meal kit. The cooking instructions are clearly printed on the side of the package, making it easy for even beginners to follow.
Step 2
Check the contents of the meal kit. It typically includes the chicken, nurungji, chicken stock, and Hwanggi (astragalus root), common in Samgyetang. If preparing from scratch, you’ll need stir-fry cut chicken, store-bought chicken stock, and nurungji.
Step 3
Place the prepared chicken in a pot, add enough water to cover, and bring to a boil with 2 Tbsp of soju. This initial blanching helps to remove any impurities and excess fat from the chicken.
Step 4
After blanching, drain the chicken and rinse it under clean water. Transfer the blanched chicken to a clean pot. Add the nurungji, Hwanggi, and chicken stock.
Step 5
Add the chopped scallions to the pot with the chicken for added aroma and flavor.
Step 6
Pour in 750ml of chicken stock (or water) and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Let it simmer until the chicken is tender and the nurungji has softened, approximately 20-30 minutes. Once the chicken is cooked through, remove the Hwanggi packet. Taste the broth; the chicken stock usually provides enough saltiness, but you can add a pinch of black pepper to adjust. Turn off the heat.
Step 7
Prepare the dipping sauce. Instead of a simple soy-wasabi mix, create a sauce inspired by Dongdaemun’s Dakhanmari: combine 2 Tbsp of gochujang-based sauce (Chojang), 1 tsp of minced garlic, 1 Tbsp of chopped scallions, and 1 tsp of fresh wasabi. Mix well.
Step 8
Your Harim Nurungji Chicken Soup is ready! The rich broth, tender chicken, and soft nurungji create a wonderfully comforting meal. While adding seafood would enhance the flavor further, it’s delicious as is. Dip the tender chicken pieces into the flavorful sauce for an extra burst of savory goodness. Enjoy the delightful combination of savory chicken and chewy-soft nurungji!
