Well, this one is a brand-new type of project for me. Big thanks to Maangchi for her instruction on making this food. What you see here are blocks of meju. Basically it's soybeans cooked and made into a paste and then dried out.

The process will take maybe a year so I'm really hopeful for success and a good outcome. If all goes well, after hanging them to air-dry and to ferment, these blocks will go into a crock of salty water, creating the wonderful foods of traditional ganjang as well as doenjang.

Korean food is a type of cooking I really only became much aware of in the last few years. Of course everyone knows at least a *little* bit about kimchi, but beyond that, it seems to me that a lot of wonderful Korean foods haven't gotten a lot of appreciation here in the US until quite recently, and even now a whole lot of it is being overlooked. While I'm eager to see how the homemade version turns out, doenjang is a wonderful ingredient that you can find at any Korean market, and I think anyone who can find it should try cooking with it.
