Description
Korean Ssamjang (쌈장) is a versatile and delicious dipping sauce commonly used in Korean cuisine, especially in lettuce wraps known as “ssam.” It complements the flavors of grilled meats, vegetables, and fresh lettuce leaves, creating a flavorful and interactive eating experience. Ssamjang is often served as an accompaniment to Korean barbecue (e.g., bulgogi or galbi) or any dish that can be wrapped in lettuce or perilla leaves.
Here’s a simple recipe to make Ssamjang:
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean red chili pepper paste)
1 tablespoon doenjang (Korean soybean paste)
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon honey or brown sugar
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon finely chopped green onions
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
Instructions:
In a bowl, combine the gochujang and doenjang. Mix them well until they form a smooth paste.
Add the sesame oil, honey (or brown sugar), and minced garlic to the bowl. Mix everything together until well combined.
Stir in the finely chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds. The green onions add a fresh flavor, while the sesame seeds add a nutty aroma and texture.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning to your preference. You can add more honey/sugar for sweetness or more gochujang for spiciness.
Transfer the Ssamjang to a serving bowl and serve it alongside your favorite grilled meats, fresh lettuce leaves, and other accompaniments.
To enjoy, take a piece of grilled meat or vegetable, place it on a lettuce leaf, add a dollop of Ssamjang, and wrap it up before taking a delightful bite.
Ssamjang’s combination of sweet, spicy, savory, and nutty flavors adds depth to the overall dining experience, making it a favorite among Korean food enthusiasts. Enjoy experimenting with different ingredients and ratios to create your perfect Ssamjang recipe!
