Sam See Soup

about samseet soup!

Samseet soup, also spelled as samsa soup or samsaht soup, is a type of Korean soup that is becoming increasingly popular in restaurants across the United States. The soup is named after its main ingredient, samseet, which is a type of Korean dried pollock fish that is commonly used in Korean cuisine.

To make samseet soup, the dried pollock fish is first soaked in water to rehydrate it. It is then simmered in a broth made with anchovies, kelp, and dried shiitake mushrooms. The broth is seasoned with ingredients such as garlic, ginger, and green onions, and sometimes other vegetables like zucchini or potatoes are added.

Samseet soup has a rich and savory flavor, with a slightly fishy taste from the dried pollock and anchovies. It is often served with a side of rice and banchan (Korean side dishes), making it a hearty and satisfying meal.

If you're interested in trying samseet soup, you can look for it on the menus of Korean restaurants or fusion restaurants that serve Korean-inspired dishes. Some restaurants may offer different variations of the soup, such as spicy samseet soup or samseet soup with clams.
