[Maangchi]

@lesliecabral wow, you made this! Cheers!

[HATINTHEKAT]

omg, the real life cooking mama =D

[vlhere]

It's getting cold here in Washington DC. I've always wanted to make this since 2 years. But never could cz I was living in a country where you couldn't find the Korean chili powder. Now I'm in the US, so i bought the Korean chili powder ( couldn't find the Kosari).... IT turned out sooooooooooooooooooo AWESOME......today is so cold too... and this soup is just perfect for it !!!!! THANK-YOU Maangchi..

2 years of waiting to make this was worth it !!!! Lots of love and thanks !

[Kpopfanatic05]

I love your channel and aeriskitchen channel both make great Korean food! Thanks for uploading this :D After watching Shining Inheritance I really want to try Yuk Gae Jang so much!

[saltpointsobe]

[Maangchi]

@saltpointsobe omg u are using ramps? The stew will be very delicious!

[patrycja1955]

I love your dishes

[LNRansom]

I love this recipe, I have been making Yuk Gae Jang since I first saw your video a few months ago and it is so yummy!

[SailfishSoundSystem]

Yum!

[qpwoeiru83]

Thank you Maangchi for this video! Why do you not draw the blood out from the brisket before cooking? Thanks, again :)

[philirish]

that looks delicious, now i feel hungry..... love all your videos Maangchi..

[719iceman]

HAHAHAHAHA

[sarangheyo90]

u're staying in toronto ? or i've misheard it ?

[chiarmaine]

thank u for this mam..

[titenanasse]

OMG I love you sooooo much!

This is my favourite meal ! ♥

It is so difficult to find nice recipes for cooking Korean food.

Thank you very much!!!

I am looking forward to buying some ingredients in Paris because here they don't sell anything :(

Anyway thank you !!!

I hope I will be able to do it. It looks good ♥

[Maangchi]

@titenanasse awesome! Welcome to my cooking channel. Whatever you make, please check out the recipe on my website. I post more detailed info. along with the photos of the ingredients and tips.

[BiSHiEE]

I LOVE YOU! i learned how to finally properly to cook my FAVORITE dish- soon dubu from you & now my new favorite! beef and vegetable soup! :D perfect insider for korean cooking!

[Maangchi]

@BiSHiEE awesome! Cheers! : )

[cksilverado1]

You and the dish look awesome!

I like a variant of this in a more traditional stew. Coat stew meat in flour, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper. Braise meat in sesame or olive oil...add garlic just before adding broth. Add traditional vegetables, red wine and any amount of hot spices and/or vegetables depending on taste.

[Maangchi]

@cksilverado1 It sounds very delicious!

[lilasue1]

Kosari! I never knew the Korean word! All I knew was that it was Fern Shoot. I can buy it at the Korean Market. All my life I LOVE it! It has a beefy flavor. I think some people refer to it as "Fiddle Fern." The soup looks so delicious.

[doston1]

Mine turned out well, but I read the Kosari is a carcinogen. It's aka Bracken.

[dis1flyaznguy]

i love this traditional soup.. i like to eat on cold winter days..  unni chowayo!!

[pongwoody]

i like this menu but i don't like beef...pork is better

[JackReacher2]

Please cook Korean "black" spaghetti next time. I forgot the name so I just refer to it as black spaghetti. I think you know what i mean : ) Kamsahamnida!

[Maangchi]

@JackReacher2 haha, Korean black spaghetti? Yes, I know what you mean! It's called jjajangmyeon. I posted the recipe long long time ago. You have to check the recipe on my website if you want to make it. "black bean noodles"

[threeofswords]

Yukgaejang is my favourite soup ever... glad I found this! I'm going to make it as soon as I can.

[iaccik]

Hi! Maangchi

You said you can't find toran in Toronto. Aren't you in NYC, USA?

I'm from Toronto, Canada. I live in the Scarborough region.

If you live in Toronto as well, can I ask what region do you live?

Thank you so much!!!

I must love the soup!

It looks very delicious!

[Maangchi]

@iaccik I used to live in Toronto, but I'm living in NY now. Actually I meant toran stem. I found it at a Korean store after I posted this video. Check my "about" page on my website. Thank you!

[jin555]

Great videos. Love the soup. My husband loves it. It was my first time and you are a wonderful teacher!

[666EatMyPanties]

she said toronto,... thats where im from

[pgaru]

I'm sooooo hungry right now....You made this look easy and fun to make, I think I'll try to make it instead of waiting to visit my parents to eat it again, thank you.

[Maangchi]

@pgaru Let me know how your yukgaejang turns out! : )

[mklptrk]

This was the first recipe I tried from you - it turned out great and it was totally easy. Thank you for your awesome food!

[Maangchi]

@mklptrk wow, good news! : ) Thank you for your update!

[iPinoyBaller]

Oh my goodness. I'm so glad you made this.

It's so boring in the house and I feel like having something spicy. So glad I found this video.

Thanks so much. I'll subscribe.

[Maangchi]

Thank you very much! I'm inviting you to my website, which is my home on the internet. : )

[happysml]

it's so delicious....i'll try this...but i can't find kosari so can I skip it?

[Maangchi]

@happysml yes, skip it. It will still be delicious! Good luck!

[gerald22macoolit]

jackpot! my father in law loves to eat spicy foods and im going to try this one and serve to him, i wonder whats gonna be his reaction..

[Maangchi]

@gerald22macoolit yeah, let me know the result! : )

[MopiDun]

I love this dish...I am going to try and do them.. thank you for posting this :)

[largoluvsmihotohya]

i cant get kosari where i am, whats a good substitute for it?

[Maangchi]

Don't worry about dried kosari, just skip it or use more mushrooms. It will still be delicious!

[skaterboi76]

it's ironic how you can't find toran in Toronto. lol

[Maangchi]

I found dried toran stem at a Korean store later.

[zepres]

Thanks for sharing this recipe. Juk Gae Jang is my favorite Korean dish. At local Korean restaurants, they serve this soup with clear noodles. "Kumsa Mee Daad" :)

[bobafettfan32]

maangchi u are awesum! yuk gae jang is 1 of my favorite korean dishes. i was stationed in korea in 1997. take care u are very pretty.

[rhumball]

hi maangchi, is "toran" the same as chinese celery? is it similar to regular celery but skinnier and the smell is stronger?

[Maangchi]

No, it's not Chinese celery. Toran is taro. To make more authentic yukgaejang, taro stems are used instead of celery.

[tekangel]

mmm.....masshisoyo!! i love yukgaejang!! ^_^

[msapril68]

i think its easy to follow. oh yeah, can i put noodles also?

[Maangchi]

yes, you can.

[eastwest3002]

OK - after watching your video - I am now into the adventure of making this soup tmw. My Korean boyfriend says he wants to have this and I am so glad that you have this receipe! You are the BEST!

[Maangchi]

Let me know how your yukgaejang turns out.

[JusDePommee]

You are TOO adorable <3

[pineapplescoconuts]

Wow you really make Korean food look so good. I love all those vegetables! Thanks for sharing!!

[asiantrolls]

turn off the damn music, it's so annoying and your vid is not very clear.. other than that I thin you are a fabulous cook.

[Jameszhangdude]

WONDERWOMAN!!

[odrichjun]

I really want to cook 육개장. but I can't find any korean grocery store here.. can't get 고사리..

[Maangchi]

You can skip kosari (fernbrake). Make your yukgaejang with beef and lots of green onions. It will still be good!

[vlhere]

Im making it for tommorow's lunch...Already bought the ingredients..wish me luck Maangchi!!!

[Maangchi]

cool! I wish you good luck with making the most delicious yukgajang!

[exclam447]

너무 맛있게 만드네요...

한번 만들어보삼~~ 냠~

from south america~

[Maangchi]

: ) thanks!

[areyoufobbed]

maangchi ^^ do you do yang nyum gae jang? or just gae jang with soy sauce? its my moms favorite and id love to learn!

[Maangchi]

I like the both ways of making gaejang (crab side dish). I will post the recipe someday, thank you!

[TasteKorea]

Hi, there!

YukGaeJang is also summer food like SaamGyeTang.

[funnyfunny29]

can i replace beef with pork ?

and issit a must to put celery in ..?

[Maangchi]

no, you don't have to put celery if you don't like.

Yes, you could replace beef with pork or chicken.

[justANYOTHERazn]

maangchi... how many servings does this serve?

[Maangchi]

for 3-4 servings

[yongpack0]

im eating it right now !! yummmm

[robminotaur]

Why don't start a restaurant?? =D... it all looks so tasty ^^

[doston1]

Don't they normally put bean thread noodles?

[edwining]

they put noodles in there normally, yes

[PrinceHage]

My mom made this Gae Jang, with Raw Crab.

delicious!

[Stijlistik]

I love the way how people come up with interesting dishes to suit the weather.

[gripgrlz]

maangchi! hehe i luv your cooking!! by the way...you should be able to find it in most grocery stores( non-korean) i believe this "toRan" is taro root. it isn't very hard to find. tell me if this is not the vegetable you are speaking of!!

[Maangchi]

Yeah, I found the toran stems long time ago!

Thank you very much!

[caprilove120]

your video is so motivating~~i'm going to the korean market tomorrow and give yuk gae jang a shot. thank you very much

[Maangchi]

good luck with your yukgaejang making!

[bobafettfan32]

this is 1 of my favorite korean meals. eat with rice and lots of kimchi its great on a cold day. love bulgogi also.

[goodfood666]

same here ;)

[physicalzone]

man that looks so tasty... I am already salivating... aaaaaa...

[gurgr888]

Hi Maangchi,

Just found your youtube channel...really enjoy your cooking. Was wondering if this recipe can be used to make Kam Ja Tang (Pork Bone soup). Can't find any recipes on the internet. What is the difference between using the hot pepper powder vs the paste?

[Maangchi]

for this yukgaejang recipe, you will have to use hot pepper flakes instead of hot pepper paste. If you use hot pepper paste , it will make the soup thick and give some hot pepper paste's strong flavor. Kamjatang recipe is different from this recipe. I'm going to post kamjatang recipe someday.

[PoppyBrown]

Mmmm, I just ate this at the spa yesterday!

[Maangchi]

oh yeah? When I went to Korean spa in LA, I ordered patbingsu (shaved ice with sweet red beans and chunks of fruit) and miyeokguk (seaplant soup)! : )

[ConfettoNero]

every thing is sooo delicius, but ...why you never use the salt!??!?

[mmdghr]

is it ok to use noodles instead of rice ??

[Maangchi]

Yukgaejang is supposed to eat with rice, but if you like to eat it with noodles, why not! Check my

jjamppong noodle soup recipe.

[turan8]

Thank you so much for this recipe and video! This dish reminds me of my korean ex-girlfriend, she used to cook this for me. Brings back so many wonderful memories. Thanks again! :)

[Maangchi]

hmm, I agree that certain food reminds a person of  his or her good memories!

[atipc]

Thanks Ms maangchi!

Im so glad I found you. Well I mean your youtube's channel. it doesn't look too difficult to make, I will try this tonight as my dinner tonight.

; )

[Maangchi]

oh, let me know how it turns out. Good luck! : )

[lizyhg]

mrs. maangchi

I got a question

I'm in Chile right now, but i cannot find the red pepper powder from korea.

Can I use any other red pepper powder?

Will it taste good anyway?

Actually I want to do to my bf, he's korean guy, but here is too difficult to find those things that is necessary.

Thanks.

[Maangchi]

Sure, why not! Use he red pepper powder available there.

[jhooty14]

I love your videos it is really you make the food with care like how we do at home and your knfe skills are great keep making great vids!!

[Maangchi]

Thank you very much!

[rey0257]

TASTE GOOD

[ame3boys]

Hi Maangchi i like your video a lot, i just have a question can you put shiitake mushrooms in yuk gae jang,and also can you use iether one of hot pepper flakes and hot pepper powder. Were station in Osan Korea before and man we just missed the korean food soooo much. Thanks

[Maangchi]

Yes, you can put shiitake mushrooms in Yukgaejang, and also you can use either hot pepper flakes or hot pepper powder. Let me know how your Yukgaejang turns out. Yeah, certain food reminds us of good memories!

[tiggersmelly]

Hi maangchi! One question. Is toran the same thing as taro root? I tried to buy it in the market today and the owner handed me frozen taro root balls.

[Maangchi]

yes, it is, but taro stems are used for this recipe. Check out my written recipe on my website.

[humynism]

Favorited this one.  What is "kosari" in English? I would love to make this.

[Maangchi]

It's dried fernbrake.

[feedmekoreanfood]

I'm in love. This is my favorite Korean meal. Thank you SOOOOOOOO much!!!

[himetoots]

Hi maangchi, u're great!

did u use hot pepper paste or chilli paste for this yukgaejang?

thanx

[Maangchi]

hi, I use hot pepper flakes instead of hot pepper paste. Check my written recipe and the photos of ingredients on my website.

[Lilyput007]

Thank you Maangchi, it looks yummy.

[bedtimekisses]

Could you make kimchi (with ribs) soup please?

[Maangchi]

Check out my kimchi stew recipe. I use kimchi and pork, but you can replace pork with ribs. Thank you!

[cherlover124]

have you ever tried to make a spanish korean style dish, it would be amazing if you did one.

[Maangchi]

Spanish Korean style dish? It sounds already delicious! : ) Let me know if you have good recipes.

[cherlover124]

well no i dont have any good recipes. i was wondering if you could make one up or something. You cook really good, and im sure you would do just fine trying to cook an spanish korean style. I was wondering if you could do tamales in korena style.

[lukepok0katty]

it's very very simple..x))

[GoodKush00]

wow you are the perfect woman. great cooking and looking cute maangchi. you rock!

[HaleyManobianco]

if i cant find the korean hot powder, what could I use in place of it? I have very hot cayenne powder, would that work? this looks so good,and inexpensive to make. thankyou

[Maangchi]

You made me look up what cayenne powder. : )

If it's only available, why not? Don't forget to fry the powder with oil before pouring stock into the pot.

[lambyiii]

that looks really good! i've never made my beef vegetable soups spicy, but i think i'll try this. also, just as a sidenote, i would definately add some fresh cubed tomato at the end...because i love tomatoes. :D

[Yuginaru]

can you make seaweed soup! Please!

[Maangchi]

hi, my miyukguk(sea plant soup) video recipe is already posted. Thank you!

[xtina112233]

This is one of my favourite food, yuk gae jang, i used to have it in australia, in one of the korean restaurant called Seoul Ria, it was so delicious, i loved it, and now i can try to make it my self :) Thank you so much :)

[JasonAFoster1]

You remind me of my mom! I'm half Korean my father is white and I miss my mothers homemade Korean food!! Thanks for posting these videos!

[Maangchi]

I'm glad to hear that! : )

[weejass]

I fell in love with korean cuisine when i was backpacking through south korea. I never thought i would be able to taste it's taste again, but you've shown me how. For that I thank you. Subscribed!

[Maangchi]

hey, backpacker,

I'm very glad to hear that!

[imdana]

thank you, mangchi unnie

[xxEyezxxOnlyxx]

망지 사랑해요!

[Maangchi]

Thank you!

[DaRkVall3yofH4z3]

can we add noodles to this?

[junji83]

I'm sure you can, I've had it before with the mung bean noodles.

[Bagbird]

oh this tastes really good with some clear glass noodles =]

My mom always makes it like that

[Maangchi]

you are right. I sometimes add glass noodles to the soup too.

[SGVBaller5]

What about kelp noodles, do Koreans use it at all?

[kamelot610]

I tried this recipe, and I ended up with a sweet taste to the soup. It didn't taste anything like the one I had at a restaurant. Ingredients seem similar, but I don't remember having onions in the yukgaejang I had at the restaurant. Did I do something wrong? I followed the recipe exactly. Is it normally like this?

[Maangchi]

Hi, that's my recipe. Did you check my written recipe in my website? Modify the recipe according to your taste.

[mattman99999]

im so hungry!

must try that tomorrow..apart from that mountain veg.

mmmmmmm

[spowell30]

Hi, Maangchi

Greetings from Charlotte, NC. Your video's are great! My girlfriend is Korean and I can't wait to cook some of your dishes for her. She will be so happy!!

Thankyou so much,

Steve

[Maangchi]

Steve,

cool, check out my website later.

[fomiz]

Hi, Maangchi

There are not many Korean restaurants where I live but I was wondering if there is a Chinese name for the kosari vegetable.If not, is there a alternative vegetable that you can recommend?

[Maangchi]

I don't know. Why don't you ask this question in forum in my website. Someone else may give you the answer.

[redfield2103]

are you wearing a "junk food" tee? :)

[Maangchi]

Yes, I was. : )

[redfield2103]

awesome! =D

[kool4u101]

Hi Maangchi

Greetings from Singapore!

First and foremost, thank you for uploading your video in Youtube! I learned a lot from your videos. We don't have much of Korean restaurants here in SG, mostly dominated by Chinese and Japanese,so I'm learning how to cook Korean food myself. Korean food is very healthy in a sense - main reason why I love/like it (family/friends included).:)

Hope you can upload more of your cooking videos.

God bless you!

Warmest regards,

Wolfgang

[Maangchi]

Wolfgang

Thank you very much for your nice message. I will try to keep posting some popular Korean dishes on YouTube.

[wenncsw]

안녕하세요, Ms Maangchi.

I had saw your cooking Korea Foods Video. It is so simple and easy to cook. I had started learn how to make Kimchi. I very2 like Korea Foods and wish to learn more how to cook Korea Foods. I also interesting and wish to learn how to speak, reading and writing about Korea Language. Can u teach me?

My name is Wenn Chang from Kuching,Sarawak (Malaysian). Now stayed and worked in Singapore.

Thank you.U r pretty, nice n friendly.

Wish u all the best! Aja!

[Maangchi]

Wenn Chang

Thank you very much for your nice comment. You must be interested in learning Korean culture.

Check out on line resources where you can learn Korean language. If you have questions while cooking, ask me. I will answer you asap. : ) Thank you!

[NattHrafn]

You have a cute accent:) and I love your cooking. I wish I could cook like you hehe.

[symna]

im watching your video since I was in Europe and now I have moved to Toronto GTA :-). I have tried some of the Korean restaurants as well. Do you recommend any good restaurant in down town Toronto? Thanks waiting for your reply and also thanks for wonderful recipe, I'm gonna try this soon ;-)

[Maangchi]

Welcome to Toronto! : ) I used to go to "Bookchang dong soondubu" restaurant and "Jin mi rak". The restaurants are in Korea town near Christie subway. Think about me when you eat food there. Bookchangdong soondubu serves very delicious soondubu jjigae, and Jin mi rak restaurant serves good and cheap samgyupsal (pork belly)with lots of vegetables.

[symna]

Thank you (kamsamita) for the immediate reply. Sure I will think about you :-) even I talked about your website to a Korean lady who runs Korean wow wok restaurant in Mississauga. I love their Bulgogi and soups but they have less variety of beef, I love beef in Asian cuisine. I shall try your recommendations and give you the feedback afterward. Thanks again and have a sunny and warm weekend :-)

[mmdghr]

you are the best show on youtube thank you !!

[Maangchi]

oh, your comment makes me happy! : )

[AL3X9995]

Oh I had this soup it was really spicy I was sweating too much lol

[Maangchi]

Yeah, it will be good to eat in the winter. : )

[Mohabbat3]

wow awesome,i just love the way u chopped garlic, i wish i cud do the same way...

[Maangchi]

Thank you! Practice makes perfectf. : )

[JumpForJohn]

Gam sam me da, maangchi agima :D

The 1 thing i dont like about yuk gay jang is how long the green onions, kosari, and meat is. They feel like they're noodles so i always slurp them :P.

Its still mash e so.

arrg, neh hangook mal ahn cho wa. lol

[Maangchi]

haha, good korean skill.

thanks,

[marjorieg]

Hi!

I live in a very small city and we do not have many asian ingredients. I was wondering : is the hot pepper powder the same as chili pepper powder? I live in Quebec and sometimes, the translation from English to French is totally different...so the ingredient's names are changed.

[Maangchi]

I think so, red hot chili pepper is hot pepper flakes or powder. In korean, it is called "go chu ga ru". Check out my website and visit my ingredient blog. I posted the picture of hot pepper flakes there. Thanks

[Maangchi]

Thank you! Good luck with making Yuk Gae Jang!

[fangyen]

Hi,Ms Maangchi, can we use chicken/pork instead of beef?cause my family don't eat beef. and should we boil the chicken/pork for 30-40 minutes as well with the onion inside??tq

[Maangchi]

yes, you can replace beef with chicken. We don't use pork to make Yukgaejang though.

Cook chicken for a long time and take all meat off the bones. Then tear the meat instead of using a knife and set it aside.

Put all vegetables in the stock and boil it. Just before serving, you can add the chicken meat. Good luck with your cooking!

[zukyvilla]

Hi! Maangchi: Do you have some recipe to cook hot sour soup! greetings from Vacouver BC

[Maangchi]

hi, hot and sour soup is not korean style soup, but I know how to make delicious chinese style of hot and sour soup. I will think about starting to post my favorite food from other cultures. Thanks!

[shinsta123]

oops. you got the wrong nationality..
