hi wei lin,
yes.. you can use different kinds of meat.. clams are good too..
but the taste will be changed..
There are different kinds of 미역국… you can add.. dried shrimp… tuna from can,… clams… mussels… no meat… etc…
the way to make the soup is basically almost same.. just different ingredients… and many time to cook the meat will be different.. without meat.. you might need some seasoning to give it some flavor .. like dashida (beef stock powder), garlic powder, salt… etc.. I tried the soup without any meat and just the seaweed… salt.. garlic and Sempio YounDoo ..it was pretty good..
you can check the product..if you have that in a korean store around you..

hi
will it be alright if i use chicken or pork instead of beef as my friend doesn’t consume beef.
will the taste of the soup be different if i changed the meat?
how do i prepare the chicken or pork if i were to use them instead of beef?
will it be alright to not use any meat instead?
will the taste be very different?
how do i prepare the soup if i choose not to use meat?
do i just prepare it as stated above but minus out the beef part? (do i need to add any other stuff if i were to choose not to use meat)
sorry for asking so many questions as this is my first time trying to cook this soup
thanks alot~! ^o^

I did the soup today, it was good, but didn’t taste like I imagined it to be. Maybe I have wrong soy-sauce, that makes is taste differently or the meat makes it so different, because i used a mixed chopped meat (I think it is a beef and a pig meat mix).
I will try next time again and maybe it will taste then like in Korea.:D
I think it was my first time eat 미역국 with meat. But all the recipes in Internet have also meat.
Could I make it without the meat? What do I have to change then in the recipe?

I really love your page ^^

hi ramona,
The method will be a little different.
Soak the seaweed..and cut..and fry them sesame oil..and add water.. boil like my recipe..season the broth with soup soy sauce ..minced garlic and salt.. and when it’s almost done cooking.. add the can of tuna with a little bit of oil from the can… boil for 1 or 2 minutes on high..and done..

Hi, Aeri!
I’m from Romania and I love korean food.
I can wait to try this recipe. If I change the beef with tuna can, the method will be the same?

Thanks for all the recipies!
