저염 된장으로 맛을 낸 황태해장국

A light, savory Korean hangover soup (hwangtae haejangguk) made with dried pollock, bean sprouts and radish. Using low-sodium doenjang instead of salt keeps it less salty while adding rich umami. Choose dried pollock that is yellowish with tender flesh, and store it in the freezer or sealed in a cool, dry place.
