Korean Spicy Raw Fish Soup(Mulhoe)

….My daughter ANNE wanted to eat Mulhoe, which made me think of a new recipe. It threw me off the moment I heard it, but I am used to trying out new recipes. ANNE always helps challenge myself. Frankly, this is the first time I made Mulhoe. I’ve never eaten Mulhoe….haha. Where did ANNE eat this? Is she curious about the taste? Even if it doesn’t taste the best, I hope ANNE is satisfied with this dish. First of all, I made a basic broth and added gochujang sauce to find the flavor. The soup should be freezing cold and the taste is supposed to be spicy, sour, and a little sweet. You can use more or less gochujang, sugar, or vinegar in this recipe, according to your taste. I made Mulhoe with top quality sashimi(hoe). It turned out great. I recommend you make it with noodles(set out small bowls for everyone and let them serve themselves). It will make a nice simple meal during summer. Enjoy the recipe!
