Chunjang – Chinese-Style Korean Black Bean Paste, 250g

Chunjang- the Korean word for black bean paste – is an essential ingredient in Korean jajjangmyun – a Korean dish of stir-fried pork belly and mixed vegetables in a thick black bean sauce, served with wheat noodles. Also known as Chinese black bean paste, use it to give a distinctive flavour to classic Chinese dishes such as beef in black bean sauce with green peppers. 

The black bean paste is salty with a hint of sweetness, with lots of umami depth. Add a spoonful to stir-fry sauces to boost the flavour. Dilute with sesame oil and rice vinegar, and mix in some grated ginger to make a dipping sauce.
