Essential seasonings and spices in Korean

What makes food taste good? Beside quality and handling of the main ingredients, seasonings and spices are key to making food more flavorful. In general, they can increase the taste 👅, add new aromas 👃 and also change the visual appearance of the dish. 👀 If food is not seasoned well, it is considered “bland” (싱겁다 or 밍밍하다). This can mean that either it is not salty enough or it lacks depth in other flavors, e.g. from sugar, chili peppers or fragrant herbs. Although regionally and individually, the use of seasonings and spices varies immensely, this one fact is universally valid: They are essential to making food delicious. [WHAT is tasty and WHICH seasonings are best, however, are subjective issues. Especially garlic and chili are well-disputed cases.]

Regardless of whether you love the smell of garlic or you cannot handle spicy food, knowing the Korean names for seasonings will help you: You can either hunt them down actively [there’s even a Korean restaurant chain called “Mad for Garlic”] or avoid them when ordering / shopping for groceries! 🌶🧄 So why not learn the words for the most common seasonings in Korea! [Btw, if you don’t know how to read Korean yet, here’s a free and easy guide to learning the alphabet!]

This is an assortment of ingredients that are easily available in Korea. While some spices are used globally, others are unique to Korean cuisine. Here, ingredients appear in order of general familiarity, beginning with internationally known seasonings and spices 🌎, followed by ingredients found typically in Korean cooking. 🇰🇷🇰🇵 Characteristic Korean seasonings of animal origin are listed separately.

Generally, spices are referred to as hyangsinnyo (향신료 香辛料) in Korean, while ingredients for seasoning are called jomiryo (조미료 調味料). In contemporary South Korea, you can also see the new word sijeuning (시즈닝) which is directly derived from the English word “seasoning” and is often used in context with modern or imported food products.
