This sauce is made in many different ways. At the very core, it’s just Doenjang and Gochujang mixed. The add-ins aren’t mandatory but they do make it tastier.


One of the ways Ssamjang is enjoyed: Ultimate Ssam + Clam Doenjang Stew

Notes:
This sauce can be enjoyed with just rice and something green to wrap it in. My favorite “something green” is boiled cabbage leaves.
Use a mortar and pestle to briefly grind the sesame seeds. Or using your fingertips, pinch and roll the sesame seeds to crush them.
