About Fermented soybean paste
Fermented soybean paste, a staple of East Asian cuisine, is made from soybeans that undergo a natural fermentation process, often combined with grains, salt, and beneficial microorganisms. This savory, umami-rich condiment is commonly used in Korean, Japanese, and Chinese dishes, such as soups, stews, sauces, and marinades. It is packed with protein, essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals like zinc and magnesium, while also containing probiotics that support gut health and digestion. The fermentation process enhances nutrient absorption and creates additional bioactive compounds, such as antioxidants. However, due to its high sodium content, it should be consumed in moderation, particularly by individuals with hypertension or salt-sensitive conditions. Its bold flavor and nutritional profile make fermented soybean paste a versatile and healthy addition to balanced meals when used thoughtfully.
