Thank you for the question! You started learning Korean food to make your husband happy and now it sounds like you like Korean food, too. That’s awesome!
I think Seollongtang and Yukgaejang will be good to keep in the fridge for a while.

Hi Maangchi !
I really appreciate your blog :) It’s really nice to see you cooking because you love that and you have a good character :) My husband is korean and I’m french, I watched your video at the beginning to know how cooking korean food : I really love eat korean food. Actually I have not a lot of time and I would like to ask you if there is a recipe of soup that is possible to do and keep it during one week in the fridge ? I would like to do it the weekend and eat for breakfast every morning. Of course I will add the rice cooked every day :) Thank you for your answer :)

I wouldn’t replace dried anchovies with anchovy paste. Check out some Korean grocery stores in New Jersey or Flushing. You will be able to find dried anchovies. If you want, use dried kelp instead of dried anchovies though.

umm, reading your comments really makes me feel like having this soup! I should make it soon and have it with kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi). Yes, it’s very easy to make but very delicious. Almost all Koreans love this soup. Kkakdugi recipe: http://www.maangchi.com/recipe/kkakdugi

I tried making it with Hon Dashi and everyone liked how it turned out! (It’s all gone!) I’m out of bean sprouts now, but am going to play with this recipe as a starting point. Who knew such simple ingredients could be so tasty!? Thank you so much for sharing.

I forgot to pick up anchovies at the store and used some hon dashi instead, do you think that will work?
