Yobodish - Grandma's Rainy Day Kimchi Noodle Soup

By: Hae Jin Higgins | 09/12/2009
This is a variation of another dish my grandmother made when she stayed with us. Don’t let the list of ingredients freak you out. They’re mostly seasoning & spices & not a lot of chopping, mincing, or dicing. Bok choy & shitake mushrooms are 2 of my favorite vegetables & I added these 2 items to the recipe. I also switched out the anchovies broth for water and added dashida, which is a soup stock that comes in anchovy, clam or beef flavors. I use beef dashida. For more visit www.yobodish.com.
