Doenjang - Fermented Soybean Paste - 460g

Doenjang is a savory, deeply flavored fermented soybean paste. Produced by Sempio, this 460g version is perfect for regular use in cooking. It's a staple ingredient in Korean cuisine, used in many soups, marinades, and sauces.

It's notably found in Doenjang Jjigae, a traditional Korean stew, but also as a seasoning or dip like Samjang. It's the Korean equivalent of Japanese miso, with a more pronounced fermentation.
