Cooking tips

The spicy cheongyang chili pepper effectively blocks the strong fishy smell characteristic of hairtail jeotgal, so it's best not to omit it.
After finishing, let it rest in the refrigerator for about half a day so the garlic and chili pepper aromas infuse into the jeotgal, resulting in a smoother and deeper flavor.

Recommended for

Those who want a salty, deeply savory ssamjang based on jeotgal instead of regular ssamjang.
Those who want to recreate the atmosphere of a Jeju black pork specialty restaurant when grilling pork belly at home.
