👨🍳 Cooking Steps
1
Cut cod into 1-inch-wide strips, season with a pinch of salt, rest 5 minutes, then pat completely dry.
💡 Tip: Dry fish holds its roll better and tastes cleaner.
2
Roll each cod strip snugly and set seam-side down. Slice zucchini and cut napa into bite-size pieces.
💡 Tip: If you use picks to secure rolls, remove them before serving.
3
Strain doenjang into the broth. Add garlic, napa, and zucchini; simmer over medium heat for 8 minutes.
💡 Tip: Doenjang varies in saltiness; start with 1 tbsp and adjust.
4
Add cod rolls seam-side down and cook over medium-low for 5 minutes. Do not stir; gently shake the pot.
💡 Tip: Cod is done when opaque, flaky, and at least 145°F / 63°C in the center.
5
Taste, add scallion, simmer 30 seconds, and serve immediately.
💡 Tip: Extended simmering can dry out the cod.
🌟 Pro Chef Tips
- • Add the cod rolls only after the broth is simmering and avoid stirring.
⚠️ Avoid Common Pitfalls
- ❌ Wet cod rolls unravel easily.
- ❌ Hard boiling can break and toughen the fish.
🧊 Storage & Reheating
- • Refrigerate within 2 hours and reheat thoroughly within 1–2 days.
