Cooking tips

  • Adjust the amount of starch syrup and water to taste, depending on the saltiness of the homemade doenjang.
  • It's better to sprinkle sesame oil only on the portion you plan to eat, rather than on the entire batch for storage.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy fresh vegetable ssam wraps heartily and healthily without worrying about sodium intake.
  • Those who want a homemade sauce that neutralizes the strong saltiness of homemade doenjang, making it mild and easy for anyone to eat.
