A collection of 15 delicious and comforting Korean soups to help you stay warm and cozy this fall and winter!
It’s November and getting quite cold around here. We all need more delicious warming soup recipes! For you Korean food lovers, I’ve collected my 15 most popular soup recipes here.

Some of these dishes are served as a main dish, and some are served to accompany other dishes as part of a main meal. This list includes many of the common soups enjoyed in Korean homes. Enjoy!

Made the radish soup using Korean radish. I used fish sauce to season the soup. It was easy to make fast and delicious. Your recipe is a five star rating.
I also made potato soup, oh so good and comforting on a cold night.

Hello Hyson,
My name is E Hassoon, Sonia is my american name. I don’t eat a lot of Korean food these days because I can’t read korean ingredients at all so i feel, I am blindly selecting unhealthy prepared food in the store. That is why I wish, I can make one of my favorite dish (homemade broth) for buckwheat vermicelli cold noodle soup. It’s my favorite dish besides rice cake soup and some. Can You Help Me? I would love to eat more Korean food. I hope you have some suggestions for me, what type of spices to buy so I can enjoy OUR traditional food.
Thank you SO MUCH in advance.
Sonia
