I understand that it uses purely soy beans during the fermentation process, while Ginganjang uses a combination of soy beans and wheat, but how does the taste compare between the two? </p> http://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/difference-between-the-soy-sauce#post-340 Mon, 10 Nov 2008 13:04:58 +0000 Maangchi 340@http://www.maangchi.com/talk/ <p>taesoon84, mimink!<br /> I have only jinganjang at home and when I cook Korean soup, I use fish sauce instead of gukganjang. The taste is better than gukganjang for me. : )<br /> Ginganjang is usually used for side dishes and it's darker and less salty than gukganjang. Gukganjang is usually used for soup. </p> http://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/difference-between-the-soy-sauce#post-337 Sun, 09 Nov 2008 08:50:54 +0000 taesoon84 337@http://www.maangchi.com/talk/ <p>ahhh~ ic. thanks!<br /> i was looking up recipe for 부대찌개 and it said 1tbsp of 국간장. </p> http://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/difference-between-the-soy-sauce#post-329 Thu, 06 Nov 2008 14:34:47 +0000 mimink 329@http://www.maangchi.com/talk/ <p>Hi Taesoon!</p> <p>I'm certainly not an expert in Korean cooking but there is definitely a difference in taste between those soy sauces. Most of the Korean soups use "gook/soup" soy sauce. I think it's less saltier and sweeter than the "gin" soy sauce. What are you trying to make? Yum...I'm imagining what dish you're making and it's making me hungry. </p> http://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/difference-between-the-soy-sauce#post-326 Thu, 06 Nov 2008 05:03:58 +0000 taesoon84 326@http://www.maangchi.com/talk/ <p>Is there a difference in taste between 국간장 &#38; 진간장? </p> <p>my house has 진간장. but there's a recipe i'm reading and it's asking for 국간장. Will it be totally different using 진간장 instead? </p>
