Korean hot sauce with doenjang and gochujang. Enjoy it with bossam, grilled meats and vegetables. Ssamjang is a spicy soybean paste consisting of a mixture of Doenjang soybean paste and Gochujang chili paste. This Ajumma Republic version is added with extra garlic, giving it a complex and rich aroma and flavor. Ssamjang is a fantastic and versatile ingredient that can be used in everything from sauces and marinades to soups and stews. Doenjang is a bit like Japanese miso, so the flavor of Ssamjang is full of umami and the Korean "Gochugaru" chili, which is the main ingredient in Gochujang, gives this paste a bit of flavor without making it too spicy.
