🇰🇷한식 양념재료를 배우고 싶은 외국인 친구들을 위해 이 영상을 만들었습니다.🇰🇷


In general, there are more Korean seasoning ingredients than the ones listed below. Below is a list of commonly used seasoning ingredients in Korean cuisine. The tutorial video above covers lots of information for each of these seasoning ingredients, so I won't repeat/rewrite what is included in the tutorial. BUT I must repeat that Korean red pepper paste/Gochujang/고추장, soybean paste/DoenJang/된장, and soy sauce/간장 are not simple seasonings that can be easily whipped up at home. These three seasonings are the cornerstone of Korean cuisine. It is an art form to make these pastes and soy sauce. Not only does it require special ingredients, techniques, and TLC, but also TIME! These need to be fermented in earthenware clay pots/항아리 (onggi/옹기) for at least one year, while being tended to so it is exposed to the right temperature/weather conditions, and also carefully managing the crust/foam that forms on top.


Below, you'll find:

Korean seasoning ingredient product links (use as a reference next time you are at a Korean grocery store OR conveniently order online).
