About Chunjang
Chunjang, also known as Korean black bean paste, is a thick, dark condiment made primarily from fermented soybeans, wheat flour, caramel coloring, and salt. Originating from Chinese cuisine and adapted in Korea, it is a key ingredient in dishes like jajangmyeon, a savory black bean noodle dish. Rich in flavor, Chunjang adds a deep, earthy taste and mild sweetness to foods. While fermentation enhances its digestibility and nutritional profile, including trace minerals and protein, Chunjang is relatively high in sodium and may contain added sugars and caramel coloring, which some consumers prefer to limit. It is enjoyed in moderation within a well-balanced diet and is valued for its ability to elevate the complexity of various Korean-Chinese fusion dishes.
