Preserving the deep scent of the sea [KF365] Gijang Seaweed

Introducing Gijang seaweed harvested in Gijang-gun, Busan, which has been designated as a special zone for seaweed and kelp. Gijang seaweed has narrow leaves and thick stems. The tissue that forms the leaves is firm, so it doesn't easily soften even after boiling for a long time, and its rich, deep flavor is excellent. Its texture remains alive, making it perfect for refreshing cold soups or tangy seasoned dishes. After thoroughly removing the stems, it has been dried in its original form, so you can divide it into your desired size and shape for use.

Gijang, the optimal production area where warm and cold currents meet As you drive from Haeundae, Busan towards Ulsan, you'll encounter the Gijang sea. This meeting point of the East and South Seas is rich in plankton, making it ideal for the growth of seaweed and kelp. Furthermore, the currents are strong, the water is deep, and there's abundant sunlight. This pristine environment guarantees the flavor of the kelp. During the Joseon Dynasty, dried seafood produced in Gijang-gun was even presented as tributes to the royal court. In modern times, Gijang-gun has been designated as a special zone for seaweed and kelp, maintaining its historical reputation.
