Chadol Gom Tang

For decades, I’ve been using packaged beef bone stock (see generally 15.022 Taste Test: Packaged Beef Bone Stock (Miyeok Guk)) as a base for various soups (see for example 1.323 Ddeok Mandu Guk (with recipe)), but never for its eponymous purpose (i.e., gom tang), until tonight.

The fat from the chadol (shaved brisket) boosted the beefiness.

Granted, with the addition of egg + napa cabbage + enoki mushrooms, this was a bit more complicated than a traditional gom tang, which is essentially just broth + meat, maybe noodles (see for example 12.236 Gom Tang), but the stock was the main star nevertheless.
