Nakji-yeonpo-tang can be prepared by boiling long arm octopus in kelp stock, taking the octopus out, slicing them into bite-sized pieces and putting them back into the soup. The soup is usually seasoned with salt, minced garlic, sliced tree onions, sesame oil, and ground toasted sesame seeds, and is boiled together with the slices of octopus.
