I followed the recipe for the sauce, but increased by half, as I made a larger portion of pork. For cooking I braised instead of making it in the crock pot. It was fantastic, with rich flavor that even my two year old loved

Wish I could say the same. The only ingredient I was missing was the Bean Curd. Everything else was measured exactly like the recipe in cooked on low for 6 hours. I wish I had done it in the oven, has the Crock-Pot just seems to dilute the flavors. And it was very wet. Just glumpy.. is that a word lol? I tried doctoring it up a little, but ended up tossing it.

As I searched for ingredients for this recipe, I found that the "seasoned soybean paste" is actually called "DoenJang".
Apparently, "SsamSang" is a dipping sauce made up of Korean soybean paste (DoenJang, 된장), Korean chili paste (Gochujang, 고추장), minced garlic, minced onion, chopped green onion and sesame oil.
I hope this is helpful!

I love this recipe and make it all the time! Not sure if the seasoned soy bean paste is the same as my fermented soy bean paste, but I always throw some of that in. I've also thrown in a scoop of hot broad bean paste. We like it served over rice with a little cabbage and cilantro slaw on top. A runny yolk egg on top also totally rocks!! Thanks for the recipe :)

Made this last night and it was a big hit. Many compliments and second helpings. Didn't have any ssamjang, so I used the recipe in the NY Times and substituted yellow miso for the bean paste. Will definitely be making this dish again.

This is one of my favorite slow-cooker meals. It has great flavors and is a top 10 for comfort foods. Serve it with rice or noodles, or make lettuce wraps. All good.
