The soybeans are cleaned and soaked for 24 hours, then cooked over a wood fire for several hours in large traditional pots. The cooked beans are then crushed and shaped into soybean blocks, called Mejoo or Meju, which are then hung to dry for about 50 days by rice straw braids; this is the first fermentation. The blocks are then placed in a fermentation chamber at a higher temperature, under straw. This is the second fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Meju blocks are then placed in large terracotta jars, also called Onggi, with spring water and sun-dried sea salt, and will ferment naturally in this brine for 60 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mixture will then be filtered. The solid, derived from the fermented Meju, becomes Doenjang, and the residual water becomes Ganjang, soy sauce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach ingredient will then be placed in a large jar for aging of at least 2 years to enhance these exceptional products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFind our \u003ca title=\"Link to article on artisanal doenjang\" href=\"https:\/\/www.koreastore.fr\/blogs\/blog\/comment-utiliser-doenjang-cuisine-recettes-faciles\"\u003earticle on Doenjang\u003c\/a\u003e here.\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommendations and distinctions: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis artisanal doenjang is recommended by Chef Hooni Kim in his cookbook \"My Korea\", published by Hachette Cuisine in 2022.\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jook Jang Yeon","offers":[{"title":"150g","offer_id":44393304293643,"sku":"P011","price":11.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g","offer_id":44393304359179,"sku":"P012","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0659\/3973\/4795\/products\/Doenjang-artisanal-Jookjangyeon-500g.jpg?v=1701189906","url":"https:\/\/www.koreastore.fr\/en\/products\/doenjang-pate-de-soja-fermente-artisanale-jookjangyeon","provider":"Korea Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
