Ggori Gomtang 꼬리곰탕 Korean Ox tail soup

[JJungkr]

just saying, the noodles usually only go into 'seol long tang' which is a soup from beef bones, but its not ox tail soup. I've heard that people do put dangmyeon(japchae noodles) in ox tail soup, but its rare. Also, the noodle that goes in seol long tang is not the japcahe kind-- its the white one made with flower--(somyeon, which is softer than spagetti and thinner). But props to you. I've never seen a white guy or even foriegners making this soup at all. It's a dish that requires patience.

@JJungkr I was just hanging out that weekend so it was not to bad. When I needed to go out I would just turn it off. I froze most of it in small bags. Then when I needed some I had it on hand.

[TheJDub1228]

[powerplantop]

@TheJDub1228 Thank you!

i don't understand. if you keep topping up the water, don't you evaporate the flavour? i can never get my soup super white and full of flavour. is it because i need to add like 10 lbs of bone?

[powerplantop]

@julian2745 What you are trying to pull out of the bones are the marrow calcium etc. Those things get left behind when the water evaporates. Try this take some water dissolve some salt in it. Put it in a plate and let the sun evaporate the water. The salt gets left behind. The only way to get the white soup is to pull the minerals out of the bones. The way to pull them out is to boil them a long time.

how many korean oxtail did u try till nw ...??? i luv korean oxtail....

[powerplantop]

@nyktm1 I have had this soup many times at a lot of Korean Restaurants

Thanks!

[madcityone]

It seems like you've lost a lot of good beef consume on the first boil when you dumped it out. Something tells me i need to taste your work to really see if it was worth it.

[powerplantop]

@madcityone The first boil removes a lot of fat and blood, if left in the soup does not tatse as clean. When I cook western soups I roast the meat first then use without dumping out the water.

[khoafish]

I regret I have only one negative vote.

[xlongyujax]

Oh thanks. I was bit confused about how long i had to wait to get the blood out...

Shoot looks like you cook Korean food better than most Koreans.

[powerplantop]

@xlongyujax I do a lot of research onn the foods that I cook.

[djbrumond]

Very cool. Eating some seolleongtang now that I made yesterday. Look forward to perusing your channel!

[powerplantop]

@djbrumond Thank you!

[toadieification]

Nice!

[powerplantop]

@toadieification Thank you!

[keithcookstv]

great recipe!

[samyoowell]

omg, thats a lot of soysauce....

[powerplantop]

@samyoowell If want to use less then use less. Just remember the soup is cooked without salt.

[samyoowell]

@powerplantop the soup is originally supposed to be a little on the bland side. the soup is eaten originally because its considered healthy. why would you ruin it with something so salty like soy sauce?

[powerplantop]

@samyoowell You can eat yours how you like. I don't eat bland food.

[caramelgirl]

@samyoowell hahaha well gom tang and seolungtang always need salt. ALWAYS.

[bapjo]

That was pretty impressive. Did you get the recipe from Maangchi? (just asking)

[powerplantop]

@bapjo Maangchi is a friend so I don't mind you asking. The recipe came from my Mother-in-law.

[somniumconspirator]

You made it wonderfully. Great job!

[powerplantop]

@somniumconspirator Thank you!

[mrjamesjlee]

where did you learn to cook korean food?

[powerplantop]

@mrjamesjlee From some Korean friends.

[senorluna76]

That's awesome, I just made some today and was curious to see how other people made it, you're like a white male version of my Korean grandmother, props brother!

[powerplantop]

@senorluna76 Thanks for the nice words!

[nimibiantribesman]

by the way, what was the name of that seasoning you put on after the green onions? also what was that you put on after the soy sauce? was it sesame oil? please tell me, thanks

[powerplantop]

The meat was seasoned with green onion, gochugaru (red pepper powder 고추가루), soy sauce, sesame oil and sesame seeds. I hope that helps, if you have any more questions please feel free to ask.

[nimibiantribesman]

@powerplantop i thought that looked like sesame oil. thanks. im actually in the process of making this right now as i type.

[powerplantop]

@nimibiantribesman Cool, lets us know how it turns out!

[nimibiantribesman]

gonna try this with oxtail, cow feet, and beef neckbones, didnt find any leg bones in the market today...

[cheungdty]

good video. Thanks!

[powerplantop]

thank you. I love to put the extra in bags then frezee.

[powerplantop]

Most ox tails are actually cow tails. Do you have a local butcher? If you have a butcher that cuts up whole cows they should have them. You may have to ask for them ahead of time.

[wantanmien]

Looks good, make me hungry. Thank you

[powerplantop]

wantanmien, Thanks you!

[sabrinamom]

You know, it's really weird hearing a country, American accent while listening to a very traditional Korean soup recipe. =) Reminds me of that Korean comedian from Tennessee. LOL

[kazenokoe80]

Alright! ha, you say that word the best. Nice vid as always.

[foodlover7]

you know next time you can cut the noodles in half ... that's what i do^^

[pastryparrot1]
