What are the components in making soybean paste? I would like to make my own kochu jang. And another question., if barley is not available is there any substitution for it?

Ewlung, I see what you mean. You would have to individually translate all lines that you don't understand. I copied and pasted few Korean words into Google Translate <a href="http://translate.google.com/#ko" rel="nofollow">http://translate.google.com/#ko</a>|en|%20%20%EC%9D%B4%EB%A6%84 and then I also input English and got Korean translation to match up the "characters." It's a lot of work. name 이름 mailing address 우편 주소 phone 전화 billing address 청구서 수신 주소 state 상태 Leave a message 전하실말씀 *Might I suggest you use the "Contact Us" (info@kjfoods.de) and email them all the info. and explain to them you want to order the Kosari but because you don't understand the language, it's difficult to order? They may comply and/or advise you as to how to order without having to fill in the form. Who knows. Good Luck.

I can see that Kosari in KJFoods.de but the website is all in Korean language :) I am not korean, and I cannot read korean language. I tried to use Google Translate (automatic), but that does not work on this site. Really, I spent few weeks just to hunt this down, but no luck. Unfortunately, for some reason I cannot travel far away from my current home location. Otherwise, I live just 2 hours from Dusseldorf which I can visit the Kim's Asia store (offline version of KJFoods). Anyway, I can find most Japanese stuffs pretty easily and there are a lot of english web-shops. But not korean web-shops :(

Don't know but I was looking for Kosari on Hmart and finally found it but it had a different name, Dried Bracken, <a href="https://www.hmart.com/shopnow/shopnow_newsub.asp?p=761898649602" rel="nofollow">https://www.hmart.com/shopnow/shopnow_newsub.asp?p=761898649602</a> so maybe youre Kjfoods.de has it under THAT name? Good luck.

Hi, I am desperate to buy Kosari here in Europe and it seems I cannot find it online. I found in KJFoods.de, but there is no english nor german language. Anyone know any online shop which has Kosari in Germany / Netherlands / Belgium / UK ? ... in english or not in Korean language :) Thanks.

Hmart is a good Asian internet store. I placed my dry-goods order on 1/21/11 and received delivery on 1/28/11 via UPS nicely packaged. You can use PayPal so that was convenient for me. I planned ahead so yesterday I soaked my cabbage yesterday and when I received my hot pepper flakes today from Hmart, I made Kimchi this evening so it's now sitting overnight and I'll have delicious Kimchi to eat tomorrow.

I haven't been to the One Utama outlet but the ones in Ampang seened to have varieties to choose from. I suggest you check out the other stores around there. Some have freshly imported vegetables and frozen food stuffs while others don't.

I live in Hull, UK. Can't seem to find 떡 (tteok) for 떡볶이 (tteokbokki) anywhere nearby or online. Can't wait for koreafoods.co.uk to shop online. Wish I was near London. If anybody knows somewhere near to buy some, please let me know. Thanks. :)

Anyone knows a good website for Korean products in Canada? There are Korean food stores at where I live(Edmonton, Alberta) but they're far from my place and they don't have everything I need. Besides I can't speak Korean.. can't communicate with them well TT. So if anyone knows a great website please let me know!

A great place to buy korean products in the US is <a href="http://kimchius.com" rel="nofollow">http://kimchius.com</a> located in New Jersey. Great prices too!

Hi, I want to make my own Koch'ujang and need to find meju powder, otherwise known, I believe, as soybean malt powder. Is there another name for it? Maybe that's why I can't find it online...(?) I'd really appreciate any help! Thanks!! Eva

Not really an ingredient but a tool. Recently, I rented the two seasons of Grand Chef from Netflix (a soap opera drama about a Korean restaurant and it's chefs...very nice for us Korean foodies as a lot of dishes are prepared on camera). In one scene, the girl gets this big plastic thermos looking thing, takes off the top (which is held together by four lock and lock looking clips, adds hot water and tea leaves, replaces the top, shakes, and then lifts up an opening on the top that has a built-in strainer that siphons out the leaves as she pours. Lovely little contraption, and I'd love to get my hands on one. Anyone seen something like this in their local Asian foodstore?

I've bought from Koamart and have been very happy with the results. I didn't buy any perishables from them but stuck to canned goods and tableware. The shipping can sometimes be a little "painful" when compared to the price of the food (sometimes as much as 1/3 of the total price), but they really do a great job packing and a whole set of ceramicware arrived at my house without so much as a hairline split in any of the items though they were packed with heavy canned foods as well.

I've order ingredients from Koa mart twice, and I must say that I really like it. There website is so much more easy to navigate than Hmart. I really recommend Koa mart for everyone here in the U.S. =)

I'm confused about the olive oil. I know it's super healthy but I think of olive oil as an Italian oil. Is it a usual ingredient in Korea?

I've just found one that delivers only in Milano, Italy. Here <a href="http://www.coreano.it/" rel="nofollow">http://www.coreano.it/</a> I thought I'd share since there aren't that many Korean shops in my country, not that I know of, that is. Hope this helps!

In <a href="http://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/you-wanna-introduce-yourself#post-27">this other thread</a> Kurt recommended <a href="http://www.asiakauf.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.asiakauf.com</a> for buying ingredients from Germany. I'm lucky, I live near Koreatown, but if you're looking to shop online in the US there is Koa mart <a href="http://www.koamart.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.koamart.com</a> which seems to be USA only. Same with Hmart <a href="http://www.hmart.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.hmart.com</a> which is Korean and English but the English site has a lot of Korean in it and is pretty confusing. I never shopped at any of these, but maybe someone who did can tell us if they're any good? Or recommend a better one.
