Ssamjang is a thick, spicy, and flavorful Korean dipping sauce or paste made from fermented soybeans, red chili paste, sesame oil, garlic, onion, and green onions:

It is is made from doenjang, a fermented Korean soybean paste, and gochujang, a Korean red chili paste. Other ingredients include sesame oil, sesame seeds, garlic, and a sweetener like honey, sugar, or yoridang. Its texture is thick, slightly chunky, with a peanut butter-like texture.

Samjang is spicy, savoury, slightly sweet, and umami. The toasted sesame oil and seeds add a subtle roasted bitter note, while the fresh garlic and scallions add an allium bite.

Ssamjang is a key component of Korean barbecue and is often used for dipping lettuce wraps and food wrapped in leaves. You can spread ssamjang on leaves and lettuces before wrapping them around grilled meat, seafood, or vegetables.
