Have you ever heard of the Korean food company named “Sempio?” It is one of the most popular and famous Korean food companies. They have a 60 year history, and they are especially well known for making good soy sauce. Why am I taking about this now? hehe .. Recently one of my Facebook friends asked me if I am interested in trying some Korean cooking products from her company, Sempio. Wow, the Sempio campany? Since I am like using their soy sauce, I said yes. My expectation was that she would send me several kinds of soy sauces. Then, oh my, they sent me not only soy sauces but also other cooking ingredients too. Thank you very much! The more surprising thing is that they make more than just soy sauce. I like their soy sauce, so I was excited to try their other products. Below are the products they sent me.

The Korean pickled radish side-dish DanMuJi MuChim is a simple daily side-dish that you can make in few minutes. If you are familiar with kimbap, you will know what DanMuJi is. It is a sweet and sour pickled radish. Since it already has a sweet, sour, and salty flavor, you don’t need that many seasonings for this dish. Some spiciness from red pepper powder and uniqueness from sesame oil add an even greater flavor to plain pickled radish. You can also eat the pickled radish without any other seasonings with jajangmyun, jjambbong, or kimbap.

Extra soft tofu soup, soondubu jjigae, is the most popular recipe request I received from people. It was amazing to get so many requests. This proves that many people from the world like this soup. The broth is spicy and matches great with the extra soft tofu. With the same basic seasonings as this soup, you can choose your own variety. You can use only beef, or clam. You can also use both as I did in this recipe. The kimchi is optional. I’m very happy with this recipe, so I hope you like this too.
