Jookjangyeon Premium Soy Sauce, Ganjang 250 ml

Description

Jookjangyeon’s ganjang is a savory soy sauce with a hint of sweetness, mellow saltiness, and complex flavors. Often called a “vintage soy sauce,” due to its Korean time honored way of making it, this is an artisanal soy sauce that uses four natural and locally sourced ingredients: fermented soybeans, 3-year old sun-dried sea salt, filtered natural bedrock water, and time, 1,000 days of fermentation to be exact. Jookjangyeon only produces 1,000 earthen pots of soy sauce a year with uncompromising commitment to quality and tradition. 

This soy sauce is smooth and perfect for adding depth to soups, punching up dips, mellowing gaminess from meats, or highlighting delicate fish. We recommend using it in its purest form for simple dishes that require few but high quality ingredients.

Brand Story

Jookjangyeon, Korea's most recognized artisan traditional condiments brand, is located in Jookjang-ri, a valley on the eastern seaside of Korea. The valley is perfect for a doenjang, gochujang, soy sauce farm as it’s bathed in warm sunshine from sunrise to sunset. Traditional Korean base condiments are fermented for 1,000 days minimum and traditionally made from recipes and processes handed down from generations. Every ingredient that goes into producing doenjang, gochujang, and soy sauce is natural and organic. From the soybeans, red chili peppers, to the hand made sweet syrup made from sweet rice are sourced from local farms and made by the artisanal makers of Jookjangyeon. Ingredients are farmed during the warm seasons, then harvested and fermented over the winter in handmade earthen pots made by artisan potters. Thoughtfully made with time and the best ingredients by our family for yours.
