Fermented soybean paste with sugar, garlic and chilli. Thick, sweet and salted enough to keep for two years.
How long it keeps
Unopened, this keeps 2 years — which is what puts it on the long shelf.
| As sold | Unopened, in the cupboard | Once opened |
|---|---|---|
| as sold | 18–24 months | 3–6 months — refrigerated |
Counted from the day you bought it. Figures are the USDA FSIS FoodKeeper table's, for unopened storage at room temperature; FoodKeeper counts a month as 30 days.
The table was not pulled from USDA — fsis.usda.gov answers 403 to non-browser clients from this machine — so it came from a mirror of the data.gov dataset and its vintage is unverified. Treat a single figure as indicative, not as a use-by date.
