된장의 역사
History of Korean Doenjang
Korean doenjang has a history of more than 2,000 years. Historical records show that fermented soybean paste was already being made before the Three Kingdoms period. During the Joseon Dynasty, almost every household produced its own fermented soybean paste.
Rather than being just a seasoning, doenjang is an important part of Korean food culture and continues to be recognized as a healthy fermented food.

My Visit to a Local Restaurant in Gimcheon
This time, I visited Ilwol Restaurant located in Guksa-ri, Apo-eup, Gimcheon, Gyeongsangbuk-do.
I ordered the restaurant's Barley Bibimbap Set.
The meal comes with a hearty bowl of barley rice, a rich soybean paste stew, and a generous assortment of fresh vegetables.
A perfectly fried egg sits on top of the barley rice, making the meal even more appetizing.

After adding Korean red pepper paste and mixing everything together, the barley rice and fresh vegetables create a delicious and healthy meal.
The rich and savory soybean paste stew pairs perfectly with the barley bibimbap.
