국산 검은깨를 발아시켜 낮은 온도에서 천천히 볶아 깊고 진한 고소함을 살렸어요. 3년 이상 농약을 쓰지 않은 농가의 검은깨를 여러 번 씻어 그대로 볶아 담았습니다. 달콤한 요리에도 짭짤한 요리에도 두루 어울려, 색과 맛으로 존재감을 더하는 마무리예요.
Description
Black sesame, sprouted and roasted
Black sesame is the same plant as the pale kind, just a darker variety, with the same nutty character but deeper and a little more dramatic. It looks striking scattered over a plate, too. Chung-O sprouts the seeds, washes them three to five times, and roasts them slowly at low heat, which brings out a rich, rounded flavor without any burnt edge. It's 100% Korean black sesame, naturally gluten-free, with nothing added.
How to use it
Scatter whole seeds over rice, salads, noodles, or roasted vegetables for color and crunch, or use them in baking, granola, and desserts. Crushed or ground, they turn into a deeper, creamier black-sesame flavor — lovely stirred into yogurt or a smoothie, or worked into ice cream, dressings, and Korean sweets. A little makes a strong impression.
검은깨, 발아시켜 볶다
검은깨는 흰깨와 같은 참깨의 검은 품종이에요. 같은 고소함이지만 더 깊고 묵직하죠. 접시 위에 뿌리면 보기에도 근사하고요. 청오는 검은깨를 싹 틔워 3~5회 씻고, 낮은 온도에서 천천히 볶아 탄 맛 없이 진하고 둥근 풍미를 살립니다. 100% 국산 검은깨만 사용했으며, 글루텐프리입니다.
이렇게 쓰세요
통깨째 밥·샐러드·국수·구운 채소에 뿌려 색과 식감을 더하거나, 베이킹·그래놀라·디저트에 넣어 보세요. 빻거나 갈면 더 깊고 크리미한 검은깨 맛이 나서, 요거트나 스무디에 섞거나 아이스크림·드레싱·한과에 활용해도 좋아요. 조금만 써도 존재감이 확실합니다.
About
Founded in 1995, Chung-O is one of Korea's leading makers of organic and eco-friendly foods, built on a simple aim: keep clean ingredients close to nature and turn them into safe food for people and the land. It holds more organic-processed-food certifications than any other company in Korea, across more than two hundred products, and makes them across seven dedicated facilities under HACCP and organic-processing certification. Its specialty is sprouted seeds and grains: using a patented germination method, Chung-O washes each seed several times and sprouts it, then roasts it slowly at a low temperature for a deep, clean, nutty character with no burnt edge. For its sesame and perilla oils, the roasted seeds are pressed a single time in the traditional way.

01 · OUR CRAFT
Made By Hand, Not By Machine
Every jar and bottle comes from master artisans and small family producers across Korea, not a factory line. They still ferment in traditional earthenware, age for months or even years, and follow methods passed down through generations, the same way it's always been done.
02 · OUR PROOF
Recognized By Chefs, Not Just Labels
Our producers hold official heritage titles and food-safety certifications that aren't handed out easily. Many have been featured by international media and praised by Michelin-starred chefs around the world, proof that real craftsmanship gets noticed, not just claimed on a label.
About Us:
At Kim’C Market, our mission is to introduce a better, more authentic culinary experience—by offering premium Korean food products that are healthy, tasty, and thoughtfully sourced.
We started Kim’C Market because getting real Korean groceries in the U.S. was nearly impossible—unless you stuffed your suitcase on the way back from Korea. You deserve more than what’s on the shelves at generic supermarkets.
Frequently Asked Questions
How soon will I receive my package?
We ship out orders only in the US, no later than
two business days after the balance on your order has been processed.
Delivery is made 1-3 days from date the label is created with selected
carrier service.
How do you source?
With our mission to improve people’s health by
providing premium Korean foods, Kim’C Market only offers the best
quality food from the finest producers in Korea. All of our offerings
have passed 12 internal criteria including taste, producer’s reputation,
sourcing of ingredients, and brand philosophy.
Sell by date
Every food product at Kim'C Market with less than 3 months to the sell by dates announce the date in the title page.
As a small company focusing on the best customer experience and
transparency, Kim'C Market is putting a weight on sharing information on food and correcting myths instead of asking producers to print later dates. (Fact: producers put a lot shorter dates than the lab tests suggest because they can't control the storage and distribution.) Sell by date doesn't mean the food is bad after the date or not edible. It especially doesn't reply to fermented foods - i.e. wouldn't you value aged kimchi or 5 years fermented doenjang? Please read our blog: Understanding Best-By Dates. We will continue to make efforts to educate our members and contribute to anti-global warming efforts.
