With a small strainer, slowly dissolve 2 tablespoons fermented soybean paste in the stew. This ensures that the soybean paste can dissolve in your soup! If you don’t have a strainer, mix the paste with the stew water in another bowl and put it back in the stew.

Boil for ⏱️ 10-15 minutes until potato and zucchini is soft. Take out mixed seafood packet (if you haven't already!). Then, add sliced beef or pork and tofu. Cook for ⏱️ 2 minutes until meat is cooked and add 1 tablespoon fish sauce (adjust based on your salt preferences) for extra saltiness and umami.
