SSAM 쌈 [WRAPPED] + JANG 장 [SAUCE OR PASTE]

A jang 장 (gochu-jang, ssam-jang) is a sauce or paste made from fermented soybeans. Gochujang and ssamjang in particular define spiciness in Korean cuisine.

There’s no wrong way to use a jang. Add to anything that could use a punch of flavor, either straight from the jar or while cooking. Try either in rice bowls, add gochujang to bolognese or chicken wings, dip a cucumber in ssamjang – find what works for you.

Our products are made in small batches in Korea using traditional methods (think: cotton cloths, ceramic pots, and iron cauldrons). Fermentation, like all good things, takes time. 

INGREDIENTS: Gochujang (Red Pepper Powder, Sticky Rice, Fermented Soybean Powder, Malt, Salt), Doenjang (Soybeans, Salt), Sesame Seed Oil, Perilla Seeds, Garlic
