Hot Korean Soups and Stews

Delicious, flavorful soups are a perfect choice for a light meal or a cold day when you visit our Korean restaurant in Seattle. Korean soups (called guk) remain popular in the cuisine year-round since recipes may be either served hot or cold. Historically, soup has played a major role in Korean cooking; it was often prepared in times of famine and consumed to warm up in cold weather.

Thick, seasoned stews (jigae) are a commonly shared side dish, but Korean soups are most often eaten as a main dish. They can be prepared with all kinds of ingredients, including beef, chicken, seafood, tofu, veggies, and even kimchi.
