Hansik doenjang and hansik ganjang (joseon ganjang) — made together from meju in brine한식된장
Fermented soybean bricks (meju) steep for about two months in salt brine with charcoal and dried chillies in an earthenware crock. The liquid is then drawn off and aged as soup soy sauce (guk-ganjang), and the softened bricks are mashed and aged as doenjang. One brining gives both sauces. Made in 4 steps over 20 months – 2.2 years. The longest step, age the liquid as ganjang, takes 5.9–12 months (Song D.H 2021). Salt is 17–18 % (Song D.H 2021). Bacillus and Aspergillus do most of the fermenting.
Total time across the recorded steps: 20 months – 2.2 years

What makes this one different
Japanese miso and shoyu start from grain koji grown with a pure mould. Hansik jang starts from whole meju bricks fermented by wild Bacillus and moulds, and one brining gives two products, the liquid (ganjang) and the solids (doenjang). Factory doenjang is made from koji instead.
Korea's Food Code limits Bacillus cereus in jang (except meju) to 10,000 CFU per g. In a survey of 36 cottage-industry doenjang, 5 carried B. cereus and 3 were above that limit, most likely from raw materials or poor hygiene. The Food Code also limits ochratoxin A in meju to 20 µg/kg.
Hazards the sources name: Bacillus cereus (in 5 of 36 cottage doenjang; 3 above the Korean limit, up to 6.15 log CFU/g).
In 2024 UNESCO added Korean jang making to its Representative List of intangible heritage. It is passed on within families, mostly from mothers and mothers-in-law to daughters and daughters-in-law.
