Sempio Ssamjang Seasoned Soybean Paste 250g

Ssamjang (쌈장) is a thick, seasoned Korean soybean paste used as a dipping sauce and condiment. This classic version from Sempio offers a rich, savoury, and slightly sweet flavour profile, blending fermented soybean paste (doenjang) with red chilli paste (gochujang), garlic, and onion for a complex taste. It is most famously used as a dipping sauce for grilled meats in Korean BBQ, particularly with lettuce wraps (ssam). For an authentic experience, place a piece of grilled pork or beef on a lettuce leaf, add a dab of ssamjang, and top with grilled garlic or kimchi before wrapping and eating. It can also be used as a vegetable dip for fresh cucumber or carrot sticks, or mixed into stews to add depth. This paste is a foundational element in any Korean pantry, essential for anyone looking to recreate genuine Korean barbecue flavours at home. Contains SOY and WHEAT.
