Effective Chungukjang diet
As the function of Chungukjang is highly evaluated, people are eating more Chungukjang. But as the
old saying goes, less is better than too much. It is recommended that you eat an appropriate amount.
On a daily basis, 1 to 2 large spoonful of Chungukjang (10-20g) is an appropriate amount to eat. Even
though there are many ways to cook Chungukjang, it is most effective to eat raw Chungukjang as it is.
When making Chungukjang soup, only put in half while boiling and put the rest after you turn off the
heating so that the bacillus stays alive.
Condition of completely fermented Chungukjang
The condition of the completely fermented
Chungukjang differs by the quality of soybean,
cooked level and fermenting process.
Successfully fermented Chungukjang has the
following characteristics.
- There is no resin but the surface of the bean turned white.
- Where there is resin that forms strings and disappear
- When the resin is sticky like pizza cheese
