If you didn't eat this soup on your birthday, you are not considered as aged well. It's a tradition is South Korea. In the traditional method seaweed soup has seaweed, beef and seasoning.
Recently few months ago, I tried the seaweed soup but this time it had many varieties. There were seaweed soup with tofu, chicken, mutton and beef. Traditional seaweed soup has only beef and few vegetables. I give a try on tofu seaweed soup. It tasted almost exactly like the authentic seaweed soup.
I am going to share an easy seaweed soup recipe, you can use tofu, mutton or chicken if you want. I'm using beef in this recipe. Feel free to try other ingredients to replace mutton if you want.
