Ingredients:
애호박 1 Green pumpkin Squash or zucchini
들깨가루 ½ cup perilla powder
홍고 (long red pepper/nonspicy)
새우dried shrimp
다진마늘 ¼ tablespoon minced garlic
양파 ½ onion
잠기름 Sesame oil
다시마 kombu kelp
멸치물 anchovies
OR
멸치국물내기 티백 (anchovy teabag)
소금 salt
간장 soy sauce

First use the teabag or the anchovies and kombu to make a broth. Boil 4 cups of water in a medium saucepan for about 3 minutes. Set aside

Cut up the onion and in a medium saucepan or stone pot sauté it with soy sauce and sesame oil until it starts to brown.

Now add broth into the sautéed onions, just enough to cover the onions.

Cut up the 1 zucchini and the red pepper.

Add the garlic to the onion pot and add water to fill the pot half way up.

Now add about half of the perilla into the pot and stir until it boils again.

Add the zucchini and red pepper and shrimp.

Now add the rest of the perilla little by little. If its not thick enough like a porridge you can add up to 1 cup.

After it boils for about 5 minutes you can taste it and add salt to taste. I prefer the taste of just perilla so I put very little salt.

I boil it for about 15-20 minutes total. Just keep an eye on it and when the zucchini is nice and soft it should be ready.

I hope you liked it! GOOD LUCK!!

Dr. Havas is particularly interested in monitoring exposure of the population in urban centres to radio frequency radiation and power-frequency fields. She is the author of numerous works on the subject. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Toronto, completed Post-Doctoral research at Cornell University, and taught at the University of Toronto before going to Trent University in Peterborough, Canada.
