MSG
Someone asked this
Does anyone know what MSG (monosodium glutamate) is in Korean? I know
Koreans cook with it a lot, but I can’t find any definition for it.
This is my answer
글루탐산 소다
글루탐산 나트륨
one of the famous brand name is 미원
I am a Korean but I don’t use it at all.
I heard people who are used to that flavor/taste, they always use it to almost every dishes.
And I heard that restaurants use them to meet many people’s taste.
But I don’t use it at all, I sometimes use 멸치¸ 버섯, 새우 etc instead to get the natural flavor, and those are quite good to add the rich flavor.
