Wang Black Sesame & Bean Soy Drink

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

That’s what it says on the box. It’s even in French: Boisson de Soja (saveur noire de sesame).  검은 깨, 콩  까망두유

Wang Black Sesame & Bean Soy Drink Can’t remember what it tasted like. All these Korean soy drinks taste the same to me, regardless of flavor variant. As long as it’s inoffensive, I gleefully suck through the handy straw my healthy dose of soy.

This box is small and contains just 200 milliliters (6.76 fluid ounces), appropriate for one un-American serving.

Ingredients: soymilk (filtered water, soybean), soybean oil, black soybean extract, black sesame paste, malto-oligosaccharide, glycerin fatty acid ester, sugar, salt. The ingredients list is also in French and Korean hangul.

Miyeok is Korean Wakame Seaweed

Monday, April 20th, 2009

This is the Wang brand of 미역 (miyok), which you can use to make 미역국 (miyeok-guk), a seaweed soup traditionally eaten on one’s birthday and given to Korean women who have just given birth. The Japanese call this kind of seaweed wakame. It’s different from the seawood used to wrap sushi — that seaweed is called nori in Japanese and kim in Korean.
