A good lentil soup
or tomato soup can be scrumptious!

Jiggae, kimchi or doenjang variety is ok.
I've had my fair share of MSG in both
and that takes away from my pleasure.

I agree with a good French Onion soup, Lobster bisque, Miso soup, Mi Yeok Guk, or Italian wedding soup being in the top ten, but KIM CHI CHI KAA ES #1.1

If talking about Korean food, dwenjang jjiggae and soondubu are both superior soups.

But the best soup in the world is broccoli cheddar. I don't even like broccoli, but that soup is amazing.

It's a toss up between tom yum goong and my grandma's matzoh ball soup (which I'm thankful that I learned how to make exactly the same way.)

When I need a bit of quick childhood, I make a can of Campbell's tomato soup the best way: a can of milk, and some zachug (a Yemenite Israeli spice paste) and add popcorn to it.

I'm fond of a bit of kimchi jjigae, but maybe only once or twice a month, without the meat.

And how would you write them, Sir Eggy?

From Wikipedia:

Seolleongtang or Sul Lung Tang (I combined the two)

Yukgaejang (but we all know it's a long u)

Plenty of google results for mine

How did you write out the Korean word for garbage again?

Unfortunately the Moroccan sandwich thread got deleted because you flipped out and started inviting people to meet you for a fight.

I don't know why, but nothing says Korea more to me than that lukewarm cream soup you get at those three-course tonkatsu restaurants. Its not a high ranking soup, but I think it deserves recognition. With Bach playing in the background, sip the soup slowly as you watch your server pour water from a long spouted carafe....ahhhh elegance!
