[Yangban] Seasoned Seaweed Flakes (Kimjaban)
Yangban's Seasoned Seaweed Flakes is a delicious topping for a bowl of hot rice.
Seasoned Seaweed Flakes is called Kimjaban in Korean. To make Kimjaban, Yangban roasts its high-quality seaweed at a high temperature (300°C). The roasted flakes are set aside to dry-out for 24 hours. The following day, they are roasted a second time - producing extra crispy, brittle flakes. These flakes are then sprinkled with powdered soybean and sesame seeds.
This powdered soybean gives - the otherwise salty flakes - a slight sweet, nutty flavor (similar to Injeolmi rice cakes). Sprinkle a handful of the flakes over your rice and enjoy. Kimjaban is especially popular among Korean children!

About the Brand
Yangban is owned by a large food conglomerate, Dongwon. Yangban has a great track record in developing traditional. Korean foods into modern, global brands.
How is Gim Made?
Korean Gim starts by harvesting edible seaweed (red algae) that grow around the rocks on the ocean floor. But not from any ocean! Gim is harvested specifically from the waters surrounding the Korean Peninsula, starting from late-December to mid-April.
The harvested seaweed is then finely chopped and mixed into a large vat of water - like a soup. The soup mixture is then scooped over rectangular bamboo mats. The water passes through the porous mat and a thin layer of seaweed mix is left behind. This thin layer is then baked at a high temperature (or sun-dried). Afterwards, it's seasoned with oil and salt and baked once more.
