Soups & stews Banchan Tteok Ssamjang (Korean: 쌈장) is a thick, spicy paste used with food wrapped in a leaf in Korean cuisine.

The sauce is made of fermented soy beans (doenjang), red chili paste (gochujang), sesame oil, onion, garlic, green onions, and optionally brown sugar.

Together as ssamjang they mean "wrapping sauce".

Besides the standard way of making ssamjang, other ingredients can be added to make special versions.
