Chong Jung Won Chinese Black Bean Paste, 8.82 Ounce

Product was delivered quickly, fresh taste, and happy customer!!

Claims to be no more than it is. Very good product.

Here's a simple recipe for Jajangmyeon (Serves 2-4): 1 1/2 cups pork butt, cut into cubes 1 cup onions, diced 1 cup potatoes (or zucchini), diced 5 Tbsp. black bean paste 2 tsp. sugar 2 cups water 2 Tbsp. cornstarch dissolved in 2-4 Tbsp. of cold water 400 g. noodles (I used Udon) Fry the pork until golden brown, set aside. Cook the black bean paste on the same pan with the remaining oil. Add in onions and potatoes and stir fry for 2 minutes. Add the pork and water and boil until the potatoes are fork tender. Season with sugar. Lastly, add the thickener. The flavor is okay. The paste already has some salt in it. I think the real challenge here is balancing the umami. Be careful not to over season so as not to lose the black bean flavor. It's not like the other paste that I have used before where there's little to no adjustment. Sucks for me. For first timers, you'll need getting used to (the taste). Again, to finish the whole packet you'll need to quadruple the recipe, which is a lot. Good luck.

I love this product! Taste great easily stored in glass jar in the fridge 😋. Will buy again. Portion is perfect. Price is right, flavors of my memory.

You need to fry this to use it as an ingredient for jjangmyeon/jjangbap. Once fried, it keeps in the fridge for 2 weeks. I can usually make two large batches of each with the fried paste!

Flavor wasn’t that strong.

First time making Jjajangmyeon and this sauce came in handy! the bag is a bit on the small side but just a tablespoon was enough for this entire bowl.

ordered this after wanting to try Jjajangmyeon for years, used an aaron and claire recipie for it and it turned out great. my only wish is that it was in a container instead of a pouch as it would have been easier to keep without worrying if you don't use it all. still considering it shipped to me with no issues unlike other ppl with similar products in a container its hard to complain about it coming in a poucj... a tube would be nicer tho.

The quality of this product is great, you get a good amount making this value for money. Easy to prepare and tasted great. I have had fun creating recipes using this.

Se lo sai fare è assolutamente delizioso. Jajamyeon è il miglior piatto coreano.
