Kimchi Mixed Soup (simple one pot)

simple healthy and quick one pot dish that can be bulk prep and last you for 2 meals a day for 4 days secret tips: -apples impart a sweet flavor to soup -clams give a slightly briny but umami taste -the kimchi paste and kimchi serves as the main base taste..try to use the authentic imported Korean type (I personally use I M KIM brand sold in Prime Supermarket)..locally made ones are not as flavorful -anchovies and seaweed serves as the umami flavor too (omit anchovies if you suffer from gout) -lotus and bamboo adds crunch -for soup to be super flavorful,trick is not to use too much water otherwise it will be bland. the veggies will release their own natural sweet liquids as they simmer!
