Exporting News

Korean Food Promotion Events Held in Japan and China

Rice & Samgyetang Exports to China Are on Track The beginning of exports of Korean rice and samgyetang (ginseng chicken soup) to China is a step closer as export negotiations between the two governments have come to an end. According to MAFRA (the Ministry of Agricultural, Food, and Rural Affairs), Korea and China reached an agreement on the quarantine and hygiene conditions to begin the export of samgyetang. Also, on October 31, they signed an MOU (memorandum of understanding) for cooperation in quarantine inspections of Korean rice. The samgyetang negotiation process took nine years, and the rice negotiations were conducted for the six years after the Korean government authorities made the first inquiry to their counterparts in China. MAFRA will work on follow-up measures so that exports of the two types of products starts in a timely manner. The measures include: △ making a standard form of quarantine certificates, △ facilitating on-site hygiene inspections by Chinese officers, and △ registering Korean exporters with the Chinese government. In connection to the export of rice, MAFRA will do its best to reach an agreement on fumigation standards and request that Chinese quarantine officers be dispatched to Korea to conduct inspections.

events. The events―such as K-Food Fair (a large-scale Korean food promotional event)―were actively held in China’s inland areas and halal region. All of them received good responses from foreign buyers and consumers. Overall, 2015 was a year of a consistent expansion of the consumption base for Korean agri-products. Thanks to Korean ginseng’s standard being registered as a global standard, Korea has grown in its international status as the birthplace of ginseng. Korean dairy foods, including banana flavored milk, succeeded in entering the halal market, and so on. Below, <Korea AgraFood> would like to introduce you to the

For Korean agri-products, this year’s key words to advance into the Chinese market were “premium” and “inland market.” Early this year, the Korean government opened a Premium K-Food Store in Da Wei Cheng, a high-end department store in the Shandong area. High-quality and safe Korean foods―such as yuja (citron) tea, processed red ginseng, and gochujang (red pepper paste)―are actively promoted to local medium- and upper-income groups there. To introduce the taste and excellence of Korean agri-products in China’s inland, a lot of K-Food antenna shops were run in the inland areas of China. The building of the Distribution Center for Korean Agri-Products at Qingdao became the highlight of the efforts to facilitate smooth distribution of Korean agri-products in China. The main function of the distribution center is to offer “one-stop distribution service.” It ensures that the quality of the product―for example, the freshness―is maintained. It

also effectively cuts the time and cost of transporting agri-products from Korean food exporters to Chinese distributors. The resumption of Korean fresh milk (pasteurized milk) exports to China was one of the main topics of the year. The fresh milk from three Korean dairy producers―Seoul Milk, Yonsei Milk, and Mail Dairies―was registered in China’s “Foreign Dairy Food Producers and Items” last June. From the following month, Korean fresh milk products have been actively sold in major Chinese cities such as Shanghai and Gwangzhou. The issues related to import quarantine for Korean rice and samgyetang (ginseng chicken soup) were finally settled through the summit talks between Korea and China in late October, and the products moved a step closer to being exported to China.

Buckwheat 3 Pasta, Yeonin

10 Specially

Selected Dishes for the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics

Bibimbap Salad, Yeosim Flower Rice

A representative Hallyu (Korean wave) dish, bibimbap used to be called “hwaban” (flower rice) in the old times because it features beautiful ingredients and colors. Yeosim Flower Rice recreates these characteristics for the modern people. Its colors are so pretty, it looks too good to eat. A unique feature of the dish is that it is not a rice dish, but a salad. The dish mixes fries made with Pyeongchang buckwheat (rich in essential amino acids and rutin), vegetables, black rice fries, and a gochujang (red pepper paste) mayonnaise sauce.

This is a sweet pasta dish in which soy sauce is added to pasta noodles made with buckwheat. Buckwheat, a local specialty of Pyeongchang, is rich in protein and has few calories, so it is effective for weight control. As buckwheat is made into pasta, men and women of all ages can enjoy it without burden. In addition, buckwheat adds chewiness to the texture. Garnished with a representative Korean fermented food, soy sauce, the dish has a plain yet savory taste, quite different from pastas with tomato or cream sauce.

ith the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics 800 days away, a list of 10 special dishes that use Pyeongchang local agriproducts was released to the public in November. All ten are Korean fusion dishes developed jointly by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Pyeongchang County Administration. This was done for the purpose of promoting Pyeongchang agricultural products more effectively to foreign tourists who visit to watch the Winter Olympics. Pyeongchang County is planning to distribute the related recipes to local restaurants, so that tourists can taste these dishes at the restaurants in Pyeongchang during the games. As a native of the Gangwon Province, where Pyeongchang County is located, Chef Edward Kwon took charge of creating the menu. Kwon has been working as a head chef at deluxe hotels―

Dumplings are a representative food symbolizing fortune, and the trout dumplings have been created to wish good results to all athletes participating in the Olympics. The dish is made not with minced meat but with Pyeongchang trout fillet, which has abundant protein and is effective for recovery from fatigue. The tomato cream sauce served with the dumplings enriches the taste and scent of the trout.

It also increases concentration. Memil-Deodeok Roll Cutlet is made by covering deodeok with buckwheat powder and deep-frying it in oil.

Nutritious Golden Kiwi Gains New Attention

New Korean Varieties Enter the Global Market

mong a variety of different fruits, there is one that used to be in the spotlight due to the high concentration of vitamin C. That is kiwi. In fact, the nutritional value of kiwi is so high that two kiwis can satisfy the amount of vitamin C, vitamin E, folate, magnesium, and potassium we need per day. The vitamin C content in one kiwi, for example, is known to be three times that in an apple and twice that in an orange or grape. Thanks to these merits, kiwis used to be very popular. However, after some time, consumers realized that, compared to other fruits, kiwis are not easy to peel and that the fruit requires extra time for ripening before it can be eaten. As a result, interest in kiwis decreased and so did the demand. Then, consumers started to take notice of golden kiwis, which are sweeter than common kiwis and can easily be eaten with a spoon after being cut in half. The advantages

earned the golden kiwi many fans. In 2004, New Zealand’s Zespri corporation established several cultivation areas for golden kiwis on Korea’s Jeju Island. The fruits cultivated there are distributed both domestically and internationally, and the farmers engaged in growing the fruit pay royalty fees to Zespri. Seeing the situation as an opportunity, research centers funded by Korea’s central government and local administrations jumped into developing new varieties of the fruit. Since 2007, the newly created varieties of golden kiwis have been distributed to farmers. The most remarkable among them are the Halla golden kiwi of the Rural Development Administration and the Haegeum golden kiwi of South Jeolla Province’s Agriculture Research & Extension Services. In 2010, the new types of kiwi started being sold through direct transactions between farmers, consumers, and large distributors. Last year marked the be-

ginning of exports to Japan and Singapore.

USD$1 million Export Contract with Japan The exporter is the Suncheon Cooperatives Union Corporation. Last September, it signed a contract to export Haegeum golden kiwis with Infarm, one of the largest Japanese importers. The export amount was set at USD$1 million per year. The contract parties have agreed to collaborate in the smooth supply, marketing, and promotion of excellent quality of Haegeum kiwis. The corporation started searching for foreign markets based on an estimate that yields of Haegeum golden kiwi will increase year by year. Currently, the cultivation areas amount to 130ha that are spread along the southern coast of Korea―Wando, Goheung, Suncheon, and other areas. The trees are still young, so a year’s yield is between 1,000 and 1,500 tons. However, it is expected that when the trees

are fully grown in about five years, the harvest will approach 5,000 tons. With more product, awareness of the Haegeum golden kiwi brand will naturally go up, but distribution in the domestic market may also become a problem. That is why the corporation decided to seek out an early entry into overseas markets. Jung Jae-hwan, Manager of the Agricultural Products Processing Center (APC) said, “The rising popularity of golden kiwis is prompting the farms that grow the common kiwi to switch to cultivation of golden kiwis. However, even those farmers that already have ties with major domestic supermarkets need to diversify their distribution channels to raise their bargaining power.”

Quality Tests Decide Harvesting Time Haegeum golden kiwis possess a number of superior features in comparison with other golden kiwis. They have

a strong resistance to bacterial canker, a disease which is fatal to kiwi trees because it forms cork layers around the fruit’s peel and the tree’s leaves and stems. The variety also withstands cold weather relatively well. The shape of the fruits is a wellbalanced oval and the sugar content is over 15。Brix, so consumers can feel that Haegeum golden kiwis are sweeter. The fruits are harvested from early October, which is two weeks earlier than other varieties. Around this time of the year, the circulation amount of New Zealand’s Zespri kiwis is reduced. This helps increase the market share of Haegeum kiwis. The biggest advantage of the goods of the corporation is that they are put on the market after passing strict quality tests. To determine whether the fruits are ready to be harvested, kiwis of each individual farm must meet the fixed standards for sugar content, hardness, chromaticity, and dry weight. It is only after passing these tests that the farmers are allowed to reap the kiwis. Enforcing these strict regulations was possible because the farmers themselves form the producer organization: Haegeum Golden Kiwi Farming Association Corporation. Mr. Jung explains, “Golden kiwis have to be armed with high quality because they compete with domestic as well as foreign kiwis.” He adds, “Haegeum golden kiwis show high figures in dry weight tests, and that is the key to a delicious fruit.”

Awarded a Presidential Prize at Korean Varieties Awards The excellent quality of Haegeum golden kiwis has been proven at objective contests held by the Korean government and other organizations. Last year, the fruit won the most honorable Presidential Award at the contest for Korean varieties of fruits and vegetables. Organized by the Korea Seed & Variety Service every year, the contest is intended to promote the development of superior new varieties of Korean origin. Mr. Cho Youn-sup, Ph.D., who played a leading role in developing Haegeum kiwis, reveals, “We supplied farmers with a new variety for the first time in 2007, and, thanks to its superb quality, around 400 farm families have joined so far. We have completed the procedures for registering Haegeum kiwi as a protected variety, so farmers can cultivate it without worrying about royalty fees.” According to Dr. Cho, kiwis, unlike other fruits, become sweeter and more delicious when they ripen until softening. To facilitate the ripening, it is recommended to put 10 to 20 kiwis in a plastic bag with a piece of an apple and leave it indoors at 20℃ for 3 to 4 days. Dr. Cho says with confidence, “We will do our best to make Haegeum golden kiwis earn the trust of consumers at home and abroad. To achieve this objective, we will strive to gain recognition in the international market by focusing on quality management in cooperation with producer organizations and distributors.”

Fresh Food _ Satsuma

lessed with a wonderful natural environment, Jeju Island is one of the World Natural Heritage Sites. One of its representative fruits is satsuma. Korea produces satsumas in green houses in all seasons, but the main harvesting season for the Jeju satsuma is from the end of October to February of the following year. Koreans of all ages enjoy eating the sweet-and-sour Jeju satsumas in the winter. The fruit has abundant juice and a soft flesh. The satsuma appeals to many with its beneficial health qualities―an anti-oxidizing effect, the suppression of the propagation of cancer cells, sodium excretion from the body, a fatigue-reducing function, etc. What’s more, because of their thin skins, satsumas are easier than oranges to peel by hand, so the fruit is easier to eat.

Taste & High Sugar Content… Fruit from the Clean Jeju Island, Sweet-and-Sour

The Seogwipo Area Is the Largest Producer of Satsuma in Korea In terms of administrative units, Jeju Island consists of Seogwipo City and Jeju City. As Korea’s southernmost area, Seogwipo City―with its warm climate and excellent natural environment―is a major international tourist destination. Satsuma production is one of the representative industries of Seogwipo City. The annual average temperature of the area is 16℃ and it never drops below 0℃, even in the winter, so the city is ideal for the cultivation of such warmth-loving plants as satsuma. On the basis of these advantages, Seogwipo City produces 60 percent of the total amount of Korean satsumas. Seogwipo Growers’ Agricultural Cooperative (SGAC) distributes satsumas grown in the area in the domestic market and exports them overseas.

Operating a Sorting and Packing House for Exported Satsumas, Seogwipo Growers’ Agricultural Cooperative SGAC distributes about 4,000 tons of Jeju satsumas every year and the organization has been exporting the fruit to foreign countries such as the US and Mongolia since 2011. To expand the export volume, SGAC has been operating a separate sorting and packing house for exported satsumas for the past three years. SGAC’s export goal this year is about 400 tons of the fruit, which is more than a 90-ton increase from last year. Mr. Kang Chang-ik, the head of the distribution business department of SGAC, introduces the cooperative, “Our sorting and packing house for exported satsumas has a cut-

Thorough Management of Satsuma Farms from Cultivation to Harvesting About 84 farms located on the island are participating in the SGAC export business. To ship only the high-quality satsumas overseas, the cooperative recruits interested farms at the beginning of each year and thoroughly manages the selected farms to produce fruit in accordance with the conditions of the importing countries. SGAC is also making efforts to improve the quality of the satsumas. The organization frequently provides farmers with training related to

disease and insect pest control as well as pesticide residues control. The organization requires that satsuma farmers write a detailed export log every day. Mr. Kang explains, “We’ve set up a system where we first collect export logs from each farm and check the logs for various items―such as pesticide management. Next, we ask a government agency to do sample testing. Finally, we only let farms that receive a passing grade from the government agency export satsumas.”

Rigorous Sorting and Disinfection…Minimizing Decomposition Rate SGAC is also putting efforts into minimizing the decomposition rate of the satsumas for export. The organization ships its satsumas by sea. During the long time on the ship, a small number of decaying satsumas can affect the rest of the fruit, resulting in claims from the buyers. To prevent this kind of situation, SGAC filters out all defective and wounded fruits from the harvest―even those that already have a passing grade from a government agency―by sorting them three times in a row at the sorting and packing house. What’s more, an immersion disinfection process was added to the system three years ago in order to prevent the spread of disease and insect pests. The cooperative uses a functional polish that can play the epithelium role in protecting the skin of the satsuma. SGAC has also increased the strength of the packaging boxes to prevent satsumas from getting damaged if a box collapses during loading. Adhering to a low-temperature transportation system allows the cooperative to maintain the freshness of the exported satsumas. Mr. Kang says, “We had many instances of satsumas rotting in the early days of the export business because of the lack of experience. But after the introduction of the immersion disinfection process, we’ve been able to keep the decomposition rate below 5 percent. Recently, we haven’t received a single claim related to the rotten fruit. SGAC will manage the quality of satsumas thoroughly so that foreign consumers can enjoy high-quality and fresh Jeju satsumas. We will make every effort to expand the export markets for the Jeju satsuma.”

Additional Information

SGAC Also Exports Hallabong!

Hallabong is a type of Korean satsuma. Its name is a compound of Halla (the name of the highest mountain on the island) and “bong” (which means “top” in Korean). That is because the fruit’s top looks like the peak of the Halla Mountain. The fruit has a high sugar content (about 13-14°Bx), soft flesh, and abundant juice. When you peel a Hallabong, a powerful fra-

grance, stronger than that of other satsuma varieties, permeates the air. Hallabong is suitable as a diet food on account of being low in calories. It is also rich in vitamin C, so it is good for relieving fatigue and preventing colds. Hallabong is exported to foreign countries. This year, Korea and the US struck a quarantine agreement, which is an important import requirement for

fresh Hallabong. Mr. Kang says, “We first shipped the Hallabong grown in Seogwipo to Los Angeles and New York last March and will continue targeting the American market.”

he Chinese government had been enforcing a birth control policy―only one child per household―since 1980, but the recent low birthrate and rapidly aging population have emerged as major social problems in the country, so the restrictions have now been eased. The new, “two children per household” policy is designed to resolve some of the above-mentioned problems, and many economists predict that the Chinese consumption of baby prod-

ucts―such as baby food―will be rapidly increasing. Against these backdrops, Korean food exporters are quickly entering the Chinese baby food market. Bokumjari is one such company. It first exported its premium baby foods―such as rice snacks, rice chips, and rice smoothies―to China last November and is actively promoting its products among local consumers.

Export Contract Signed with a

Big Chinese Buyer Last September Established in 1981, Bokumjari is a producer and exporter of high-quality tea and jam products. The company noticed the trend for the growing consumption of high-quality imported foods for infants among medium- and high-income groups in China and Southeast Asia. At that time, Bokumjari started developing its own premium infant food products. Market surveys revealed that Chinese

moms are especially interested in healthy snacks whose safety is guaranteed, so the company released the premium snack product for infants “Sogon Sogon Snack Time.” The snack is made with rice and organic fruits. Ms. Nina Kim―a manager of the sales team in the business department―explains, “China and Southeast Asia have a rice culture like Korea. Thanks to the healthy living trend, local mothers look for

snack products made with natural ingredients such as fruits to give to their babies. We developed an infant snack that brings together rice and fruits. We have steadily introduced our snack at international food fairs in China and Southeast Asia and finally succeeded in making an export contract with a big Chinese buyer last September.”

Comes in Three Types: Rice Snack, Rice Chip, and Rice

Smoothie Bokumjari’s premium infant snack Sogon Sogon Snack Time comes in three varieties: Rice Snack, Rice Chip, and Rice Smoothie. All of them are free of artificial additives, such as artificial colors, and contain no sugar or salt. Rice Snack can be given to infants twelve months and up. The main ingredient of the product is brown rice grown organically. The snack is made using a puffing method in which a temperature over 100℃ and high pressure are applied in lieu of frying. The method helps maintain the taste and nutrition of the ingredients while also making the snack low in calories (about 100kcal per 25g). This is a mere one-third of the caloric value of common snacks. The product comes in three flavors: strawberry, sweet pumpkin, and spinach. Each product has a different type of nutrition―lactic acid bacillus (strawberry), zinc (sweet pumpkin), and calcium (spinach). Rice Chip can be eaten by babies six months and older. It is also produced through a puffing method. The product comes in four flavors. Its main ingredients are organic brown rice and organic white rice. The Rice Chip product is also a low calorie food (135-140kcal per 36g). Each Rice Chip contains the healthy and natural powders of fruits (strawberry, blueberry, etc.), vegetables (such as purple sweet potato and broccoli), or seafood (anchovy, seaweed, and so on). The raw ingredients for the powders are grown in Korea. Rice Smoothie is mainly made with organic GABA brown rice. Rich in lysine proteins, it is good for promoting the growth and development

Bokumjari is steadily participating in export consultations overseas and actively promoting its premium infant snack products to foreign buyers

of children. The product is a nutritious beverage containing fruits and vegetables. Thanks to the organic brown rice, it has a smoother, more aromatic taste than other beverages made with fruits and vegetables. Rice Smoothie is offered in four flavors. Sweet pumpkin and pear are recommended for babies from eight months, whereas the mango and apple-carrot flavors can be given to infants who are twelve months and older. The smoothie is low in calories (75-90kcal per 85g).

Thorough Control of Food Safety and Appealing Design

of Packaging Bokumjari is making a lot of efforts to secure food safety. The packaging design of the premium infant snack product uses the colors of the pastel tones that infants and children like, and all edges of the product have a round shape. What’s more, the snack is as small as an infant’s finger, so it is easy for infants to grip the snack with their hands. Supplied to High-end Chinese Grocery Stores After an export contract was signed between Bokumjari and a big Chinese buyer last September, the in-

fant snacks―Rice Snack, Rice Chip, and Rice Smoothie―have been supplied to major cities in mainland China from last November. These cities include Shanghai, Beijing, and Gwangzhou. The main distribution channels are premium food stores in famous department stores, food stores for babies, and local high-end retail chains such as Ole. The products are also going to be distributed in major Chinese supermarkets such as Carrefour and Sam’s Club. To enter into the Southeast Asian markets―Thailand, Vietnam, and so on― where the consumption of Korean agri-products is steadily increasing thanks to the popularity of Hallyu (Korean culture), Bokumjari is negotiating with big local buyers about the export of its premium infant snack products. Mr. Jeong Chan-soo, the CEO of Bokumjari, speaks of his aspiration, “We hope foreign infants who eat our premium infant snack products grow well and enjoy the tea and jam products of Bokumjari in the future. Bokumjari will develop as a premium food company by producing highquality processed agri-products and exporting them.”

VeryGood-Food’s Rice Snack advances into USA market

any Koreans in their 40s and older have a common memory from their childhood

years: visiting a traditional market and seeing a machine there that popped out twibap with a bursting pop sound. Twibap is similar to western popcorn. It refers to popped grains such as rice and corn. In the olden days, twibap was made by putting grains into a hot, sealed container; closing the lid; and heating the container for a certain time. When the lid was finally opened again, the pressure inside the container would cause a tremendously loud pop sound, which took passers-by aback. Children were watching fearfully with their hands cover-

ing their ears, and, when the grain popped out, they would pick the grains that flew outside of the collecting bag. In

1200 tons of Rice Used Annually on Production of Ssal-gangjeong and Nurungji

those days, few Korean households had enough food, so twibap was considered a superb snack in and of itself. The better-off families made gangjeong (sweet rice puffs) with ssal-twibap (rice-based twibap) by adding beans, sesame seeds, and other ingredients to the popped rice; covering the mixture with starch syrup; and hardening it in a certain shape. The gangjeong for seniors or children was only made with popped rice. Called ssal-gangjeong (crunchy rice rollers), it boasted a sweet taste that won the hearts of everyone.

Equipped with a Mass Production System… Uses Natural Food Ingredients As the development of the food industry led to a variety of new refreshments on the market, the traditional ssalgangjeong became one of the gradually vanishing snacks. The preferences of modern people changed to hot, spicy, and zesty flavors; and foods with such flavors flooded into the market. As a result, ssal-gangjeong was regarded as somewhat of an outdated product of the past. However, since the 2000s, more and more people started to realize that the artificial additives in modern foods can be harmful to their health, and, on this wave, ssal-gangjeong started to attract new attention. Concerned about their children’s healthy growth, parents opted for ssal-gangjeong as a confectionery for their kids. The older generation welcomed the trend as a reminder of a cherished memory, and companies with systems for mass production of the snack sprang up. Among such companies is VeryGood-Food, located in Hwaseong, Gyeonggi Province. Its main products are Ssal-gangjeong and Nurungji (a snack made of roasted rice that sticks to the bottom of a pot).

VeryGood-Food is making its Ssal-gangjeong products in safe production facilities

The company makes Ssal-gangjeong by adding rice syrup and seaweed extract into popped rice and mixing it all together. Rice syrup is a natural food that is prepared by mixing rice and barley with sugar, simmering the mixture, and leaving it to ferment. It goes without saying that the Ssal-gangjeong of VeryGood-Food is a nutritious snack because it retains all the natural properties of the key ingredients of the traditional crunchy rice rollers. “To get Ssal-gangjeong recognized as a healthy food, we use raw sugar which is not bleached for the rice syrup,” says Lee Dong-soo, CEO of the VeryGood-Food. “Consequently, our company’s Ssal-gangjeong is close to nature in that it contains a very low level of fat and is free of cholesterol.” He adds, “According to historical sources, our ancestors started to make Ssal-gangjeong some 1,500 years ago, so it a traditional Korean food with a long history.” He emphasized that the company does not use artificial additives for coloring and flavor, so consumers can enjoy the product without worrying about food safety issues.

50 Percent of Ssal-gangjeong Products Are Exported Overseas Currently, VeryGood-Food is exporting 50 percent of its Ssal-gangjeong products. The main market is the US, where the company supplies all of the products to Costco, a large distributor. The response of American consumers has been fairly positive. Americans are interested in Asian cereals because local producers offer a lot of meat products and few cereals. The feeling of satiety after having Ssalgangjeong makes it a proper snack for those who worry about gaining weight. What’s more, the rice rollers are considered suitable for patients in hospitals.

the mouth, Ssal-gangjeong gradually melts down and is easy to swallow, so it is convenient for the people in hospital beds. VeryGood-Food attained the ISO 22000 standard, which is an international standard for food safety management systems, in order to gain credibility overseas. The company also acquired the Food Safety System Certification (FSSC) to display to American buyers its strong will for supplying safer foods. FSSC 22000 is an international certification acknowledged by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) and sponsored by the Confederation of Food and Drink Industries of EU (CIAA). It is an international standard for global companies and requires not only meeting the requirements of ISO 22000 (which most businesses obtain), but also passing Publicly Available Specification 220 (PAS 220). Mr. Lee says, “With the international certifications required to manufacture safe foods, we have achieved recog-

Snack-style Nurungji, Easy to Eat! The Nurungji of VeryGood-Food is another steady seller both at home and abroad. The method the company used to scorch its Nurungji is the same as that of the Korean ancestors. Rice is spread thinly in a Korean traditional pot and scorched until it becomes crispy and smells like roasted nuts. The company’s researchers put in a lot of effort to find a way to make Nurungji softer and thus edible as a snack anytime you want it. They discovered that if a layer of rice is heated simultaneously above and underneath, it forms double bubbles that make the Nurungji softer and crispier. With the product, busy modern people can quickly make breakfast by boiling Nurungji. During outside activities, you can make a delicious meal by just macerating the product in hot water for three minutes. Presently, the company’s Nurungji is exported through large distributors to the US, Canada, Australia, and other countries. Lee Dong-soo said, “Although we have accumulated a lot of know-how about making Ssal-gangjeong and Nurungji, what we think most important is to produce them with good quality ingredients. Thus, to make these products, we use 1,000 tons of select Korean rice and 200 tons of imported rice every year.” He continued, “The goal of VeryGood-Food is to develop nutritious cereal bars with rice, whole grains, and nuts for seniors, sick people, or children.”

weet potato, a food ingredient used in various ways worldwide, is a healthy food that is good for the health, skincare, and dieting. It is also a typical alkaline food containing various nutrients such as carbohydrates, calcium, potassium, beta carotene, and vitamin C. Thanks to these nutrients, sweet potato is known to strengthen the spleen and stomach and promote blood circulation. What’s more, sweet potato contains a vegetable fiber with the largest cholesterol capturing power of all the vegetables and fruits and is thus loved as a diet food. Finally, it is also good for skincare because it helps smooth defecation. J&m Food System, a Korean food company, produces the baked sweet potato mallaengi (soft dried vegetable strips) made only with sweet potatoes

and without other additives. The product is sold in the domestic market and exported overseas.

Hyunjine Hosiemo, Made by Cutting and Drying Baked Sweet Potatoes Mallaengi is a Korean word meaning sliced and dried vegetables and fruits. Sweet potato mallaengi are made by cutting sweet potatoes into the size of an index finger and drying the strips. It is a nutritious snack that can be enjoyed conveniently at anytime and anywhere. In Japan, mallaengi are called hosiemo. Ms. Shin Young-min, a manager at J&m Food System, introduced J&m Food System as a family company run by herself and her husband and established under a basic principle, “We make food our children can eat with an easy mind.” She

Research into Optimal Drying Time Results in Superb Chewy Texture J&m Food System was established as a food manufacturer in 2013. Previously, from 2011, the company was developing and exporting sweet potato ovens. After much thought and consideration put into finding a food product suitable for the company’s oven, the company succeeded in introducing the sweet potato mallangi product. The greatest feature of the Hyunjine Hosiemo is its unique chewy texture. The jelly-like texture was born after numerous tests and samplings, and it is a charming combination of softness and chewiness. The secret is in the unique production process. While many companies use boiled or steamed sweet potatoes to ensure a high yield, J&m Food System uses sweet potatoes baked uniformly in a self-developed ceramic far infrared baking machine. Ms. Shin explained that if a raw sweet potato is baked, the mallaengi from it become more savory, gummier, and sweeter. The company has also put a lot of effort into the drying step, which directly affects the texture and taste of the mallaengi product. Overall, the production process includes several steps: cleaning, baking, peeling, cutting, and drying the sweet potatoes, which are followed by low-temperature fermentation and packaging. Ms. Shin says, “The original taste and tex-

ture of Hyunjine Hosiemo are maintained even if the product is stored relatively long. That is because J&m Food System found the optimal drying time through much research and numerous experiments. The drying time is our most important business secret.”

Natural Food with No Addition of Sugar, Food Colorings, and Other Additives The sweet potato mallaengi produced by J&m Food System is a natural product made only with sweet potatoes and without any sugar, additives, colorings, or preservatives. The company thus always pays extra attention to selecting sweet potatoes as an ingredient. It only uses Korean pumpkin-sweet potatoes, and chooses the firm ones with big tubers. The selected potatoes undergo a curing process through which their sugar content increases and the flesh becomes denser. Ms. Shin explained that the curing process is considered more important before January because newly-harvested sweet potatoes have a great amount of starch and are thus relatively low

in sugar content.

Exported to Australia by Air Hyunjine Hosiemo is sold in department stores, supermarkets, and online markets in Korea. It is also exported to Australia. To provide Australian consumers with the freshest products, the food company uses

air transportation. Ms. Shin says, “We started exporting to Australia right after the product was released in 2013. Since then, we have kept receiving repeat orders without a single claim or complaint.” She sketched out the plan to pioneer other markets where the product can be supplied within the expiration date.

Additional Information Various Sweet Potato Mallaengi Products of J&m Food System Hyunjine Hosiemo comes in several types. Unlike other companies that produce only one type of mallaengi without distinction of shape or processing state, J&m Food System offers four types of the product: Ggamangi (black, a type of Hyunjine Sweetie, Chewy, Ugly, and Hosiemo mallaengi) Black. Sweetie is the most jelly-like mallaengi. Chewy is made with the most chewable portion of the mallaengi. Ugly is the edge portions and the strips sorted out in the process of producing Sweetie and Chewy due to undesirable shapes.

Cheese Rice Snack

SIK’s Convenience Bibimbap

New Style Rice Snack with Cheese

Keeping the Original Flavor of Bibimbap

hanks to the popularity of Hallyu (Korean culture wave), Korean snacks are actively exported overseas. Korean healthy snacks made with rice are receiving a particularly good response in foreign markets. Rice is a representative carbohydrate food. But, unlike many other grains, rice can prevent obesity because it does not promote insulin secretion. In addition, rice is also good for preventing diabetes as it does not sharply increase the blood sugar level. Chinese consumers buy Korean rice snack as baby foods and American consumers enjoy Korean rice snack because they are gluten-free. Recently, Korean food company Nongshim Co., Ltd. released a new rice snack that contains a representative fermented food, cheese. The product is called “Cheese Rice Snack.”

Enjoy the Simple Taste of Rice and the Softness of Cheese at the Same Time With Cheese Rice Snack, consumers can get the benefits of rice while enjoying a creamy-soft cheese. The products come as chips that are baked, not fried, so they taste light

yet flavorful. Of course, the chips are crunchy and low in calories. What’s more, they contain no trans fats or cholesterol. With this product, consumers can enjoy the taste of cheese as well. To make the cheese taste stronger, the producer uses cheddar cheese and also sprinkles the chips with camembert. An employee of Nongshim Co., Ltd. said, “It is the first rice snack made with cheese. We are putting a lot of effort into developing healthy rice snacks with many delicious flavors based on various ingredients.”

IK―a Korean freeze-dried food producer―recently released its convenience bibimbap (rice mixed with vegetables and beef) product, so that anyone can eat delicious food anytime and anywhere. Many consumers give the new product favorable evaluations. The convenience product is only made with Korean rice and Korean vegetables. It keeps the taste of freshly cooked rice and the texture of fresh vegetables through SIK’s patented freeze-drying technique. The convenience bibimbap product is offered as Cupped Bibimbap (which only needs heating in a microwave for three minutes) and Pouched Bibimbap (to be heated in hot water), so anyone can enjoy eating a tasty bibimbap dish both indoors and outdoors.

Offered as Cupped Bibimbap and Pouched Bibimbap The Cupped Bibimbap (80-90g per package) comes in four flavors: curry-bibimbap, gondre (thistle in Korean)bibimbap, kimchi-bibimbap, and gochujang (red pepper

n the past few years, Koreanstyle fried chicken has been growing fast in the US, the home country of Kentucky Fried Chicken. At the center of the trend is BonChon Chicken, which opened its first overseas store in New York in 2006. One secret of the huge popularity of BonChon Chicken in the American market is in the characteristic crispiness of the dishes. Although all Korean-style fried chicken is crispy, the chicken served by BonChon is truly the cream of the crop. Through unremitting efforts to find the best way of frying chicken, the company was able to make it crispy outside yet soft and fresh in-

Simple Korean Cooking

Kongnamul-gulguk Winter’s Tonic Dish with Creamy Oysters and Crunchy Bean Sprouts

hanks to its nutritional value, oysters are often called “the milk of the ocean.” They contain an abundant amount of taurine, are good for stamina, and for preventing adult diseases. Korean oysters are in season from November to the spring of the following year. Known for their chewiness and sea fragrance, Korean oysters are in higher demand during that season in the domestic market and are also actively exported abroad to Japan, the US, and other countries. Koreans eat oysters in a variety of ways. In this issue, we’d like to introduce you to a very simple yet flavorful oyster tonic dish. That is kongnamulgulguk. It is an oyster soup with bean sprouts and an anchovy and kelp broth. The dish features the creamy taste of oyster and crunchy texture of bean sprouts. Thanks to the addition of bean sprouts, which contain aspartic acid, the soup is good for alleviating hangovers. What’s more, the recipe is very simple and uses very few ingredients.

Cooking Tips Add oysters at the final stage and cook for a short time. This will help remove the strong fishy smell of oyster but strengthen the fragrance of the sea. Do not remove the roots of the bean sprouts. The roots contain more aspartic acid (which helps dissolve alcohol) than the stems.

How to Make Kongnamul-gulguk (two to three servings) Main Ingredients: 200g bean sprouts, 300g oyster, 1 liter of water Sub Ingredients: a spring onion, 1tsp crushed garlic, 2 sheets dried kelp (5x5cm), 15g of anchovies for the broth, a little bit of soy sauce and salt 1. Remove the oyster shells and impurities from the oysters. Wash the oysters in salt water and drain. 2. Wash the bean sprouts under running water and drain. 3. Use only the white part of the spring onion (about 10cm long). Slice it. 4. Put the anchovies in a pan and fry slightly to remove the fishy smell. 5. Put the water, anchovies, and kelp in a pot and boil. When the broth starts boiling, reduce the heat and boil for five more minutes. 6. Take out the kelp and boil for 10 minutes more. Filter the broth through a sieve to make the broth liquid clean. 7. Put the bean sprouts and crushed garlic in the clean broth. Cover and boil for five minutes on medium heat. 8. Finally, add the oysters and boil for three minutes. When the oysters are half-cooked, add the spring onion and season the soup with salt and soy sauce.

Kimjang: Not Just Making Kimchi, But Also Sharing Warm Feelings

re o M e h T , It e k a M le p o e The More P i h c im K g n ja im K Is Delicious It There is a Korean custom of all family members and neighbors getting together in early winter to make kimchi. This custom is called kimjang. UNESCO (the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization) registered the kimjang custom (Kimjang, Making and Sharing Kimchi in the Republic of Korea) on the UNESCO Humanity List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in December 2013. The custom that makes Koreans feel as one community is now receiving a new spotlight as part of the heritage of the humankind. In this issue, <Korea AgraFood> would like to introduce you to the Korean kimjang custom and suggest farming villages where you can take part in kimjang activities.

在韓攻，每到初冬就有全家人及左紐右捨一起動手酩制過冬泡菜的傳統習慣。隨着這種叫酩制“過冬泡菜”的酩菜文化(Kimjang, Making and Sharing Kimchi in the Republic of Korea)于2013年被聯合攻敎科文組織列入世界人類非物質文化遺産，央已不再是單純婁于韓攻人的文化，而是成爲了重要的世界文化遺産?本期內容就爲舅介紹能誥郞驗韓攻酩過冬泡菜及酩菜文化的主要鄕下郞驗村? 4 8 Korea AgraFood

During the kimjang season (early winter), many kimjang events are held in Korea (left), The Minister of MAFRA Lee Dong-phil (the second from the right) is attending the 2015 Kimjang Festival and holding kimjang kimchi with pride

he dictionary definition of kimjang is “preparing much kimchi at once to eat all through the winter.” It is one of the indispensable traditions of the Korean food culture. Dongguk Sesigi, a 19th century book that recorded the origins and details of Korean seasonal customs, described kimjang as an important annual plan for households. In the old days, when there were not a lot of foodstuffs, people had to make kimchi for the winter in advance, before it became too cold. A lot of labor went into preparing the various vegetables used for kimchi. Then, households had to salt napa cabbage, prepare kimchiso (kimchi filling), and find an appropriate storage place. Moreover, families received and gave help to their neighbors making kimchi. In this process, the neighbors naturally got together, chatted, and shared the newly-made kimchi with each other. That is how the kimjang culture was formed. It is against this background that UNESCO decided to record kimjang culture as part of the world’s heritage. At the announcement of the decision, the UNESCO committee said, “We evaluated the kimjang culture as a heritage of sharing and solidarity that gives Koreans a sense of identity and belonging. We hope that listing the custom as part of humanity’s heritage helps to promote conversation between communities whose eating habits involve the creative usage of natural ingredients.”

Farming Villages Offering Kimjang Experience

可郞驗酩制過冬泡菜活動的韓攻主要鄕下郞驗村

Yangpyeong Garumae Village

Jeungpyeong Jeongan Village

Uiryeong Chungmirae Village

Jeju Myeongdoamchamsali Village

Villagers of Yangpyeong Garumae Village clean and trim all the ingredients for kimchi (from napa cabbage to garlic, spring onion, ginger, and so on) and prepare the stuffing for children who are unfamiliar with cooking. Visitors can taste the kimjang kimchi they have made right away. To make kimchi, they put salted napa cabbage into a big bowl that contains seasoning. They then apply the seasoning between the leaves, layer by layer, starting from the outer ones at the bottom. The villagers sell Yangpyeong specialties, such as rice and pickled vegetables (jangajji in Korean).

Jeungpyeong County is one of the main production areas of Korean ginseng. For this reason, visitors can enjoy the kimjang kimchi that contains sliced ginseng. The taste of kimchi there is unique in that two different flavors appear in harmony: the slightly bitter taste of ginseng and the spiciness of kimchi. The kimjang activities are operated at two levels: beginner and practitioner. In the beginner course, the participants only add seasoning to the salted napa cabbage, so the course is recommended for children. The practitioner course is popular with housewives because they can experience all the steps of the kimjang process.

The first step of the Chungmirae Village kimjang experience is making kimchi seasoning. The villagers add a special ingredient to the seasoning. That is a soft mashed persimmon, a local specialty. Thanks to the unique ingredient, the kimchi of the village features a savory sweet taste and a vivid color. A brief education is provided before the seasoning made with the ripe persimmon is stuffed into napa cabbage. The participants are instructed to apply the seasoning evenly between the leaves, turning them over one by one, so that the cabbages are seasoned well on both the front and the rear of each leaf.

When making the seasoning, the villagers use an unusual ingredient: salted anchovy or salted hairtail’s internal organs. This is in contrast to ordinary kimchi, which is made with salted shrimp. When stuffing the salted napa cabbage with seasoning, visitors can adjust the amount of sliced squid according to their taste. The squid in kimchi produces amino acids and makes the kimchi more savory. Although visitors cannot take kimchi home, they can enjoy it at the site with bossam (boiled pork). The bossam dish is made with Jeju Island’s specialty black pork.
