Introduction
Dakgomtang is a comforting Korean chicken soup made with tender shredded chicken, a clear and savory bone broth, and freshly sliced green onions. It is traditionally served with rice, a quick soy-vinegar dipping relish, and a spicy seasoning paste.
Step 1
Prepare the chicken by wearing gloves and washing it thoroughly. Cut off the fatty tail portion and the tips of the wings using kitchen shears to prevent the broth from becoming smelly.
Step 2
Place the cleaned chicken into a large 8-quart pot. Add 1 gallon of cold water, 12 garlic cloves, sliced ginger, half an onion, and 1 large green onion.
Step 3
Cover and cook over medium-high heat for 30 minutes, then turn down the heat to medium and cook for another 40 minutes until the chicken is tender.
Step 4
Turn off the heat. Carefully remove the chicken and all boiled aromatics from the pot. Add 1 tbsp of salt to the hot broth and stir.
Step 5
Separate the chicken meat from the bones. Set aside the chicken breast and dark meat, and save the cooked garlic cloves. Discard the boiled onion, ginger, and green onion.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Cutting off the chicken tail and wing tips is a crucial step to eliminate undesirable gamey smells from the broth.
Straining the broth with a cotton cloth or double cheesecloth filters out fine bone fragments and excess fat, resulting in a clean and appetizing broth.
You can simmer the bones for up to 1 hour if you have time, just add more water if the broth reduces too much.
The seasoned shredded chicken and the bone broth are prepared separately, allowing you to assemble individual bowls perfectly for guests.
