Ottogi Launches 'Cheongdam Miyeok Gajami Miyeokguk' RMR

Implementing Cheongdam Miyeok Recipe with a Blend of Sesame and Perilla Oils and Directly Simmered Bajirak Broth

[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] Ottogi announced on the 24th that it has launched ‘Cheongdam Miyeok Gajami Miyeokguk,’ a seaweed soup featuring chewy seaweed and mild whole flounder fillet.

The newly introduced product is a restaurant meal replacement (RMR) developed in collaboration with the famous seaweed soup specialty restaurant ‘Cheongdam Miyeok,’ allowing consumers to easily enjoy the signature menu item, ‘Gajami Miyeokguk,’ at home. To capture the deep flavor of the clam broth, a key element of the menu, Ottogi used freshly brewed clam stock and blended Ottogi sesame oil and perilla oil in a special ratio to replicate Cheongdam Miyeok’s recipe.

The soup is packed with flounder, excellent for energy replenishment, and seaweed, beneficial for vascular health. It includes soft and mild whole flounder fillet to enhance umami, and two types of seaweed stir-fried in sesame oil to provide a rich texture and savory flavor.

Ottogi Cheongdam Miyeok Gajami Miyeokguk is frozen at below minus 40°C to preserve the freshly boiled seaweed soup’s flavor, and can be conveniently prepared by heating in boiling water. For cooking, pour the thawed contents and 90ml of water into a pot and heat for 6 minutes, or place the frozen product in its bag into boiling water and steam for 15 minutes.

An Ottogi representative said, “We launched this RMR product focusing on the premium seaweed soup, which adds special ingredients to the familiar home-cooked dish and is gaining attention as a health food. We will continue to introduce differentiated collaborative products to provide consumers with new and diverse gourmet experiences.”
