Beksul Yoridag is a liquid sweetener syrup widely used in Korean cooking. Its main ingredients are raw sugar (67%), fructooligosaccharide syrup, and water. Unlike regular sugar, its liquid form dissolves far more easily into sauces and braised dishes, and it does not burn easily at high temperatures — making it ideal for creating a glossy glaze. Think of it like European golden syrup or agave syrup: it adds sweetness and a beautiful sheen to dishes. In Korean households, it is used in place of or alongside sugar in almost every dish — Bulgogi, Galbi, Japchae, braised dishes, and more.

Yes, Beksul Yoridag is suitable for both vegans and vegetarians. The ingredients consist solely of raw sugar, fructooligosaccharide syrup, and water — no animal-derived ingredients are included. It is also gluten-free, making it safe for those with gluten sensitivity. Please note that official Halal certification has not been confirmed for this product; if Halal certification is essential for you, we recommend verifying before purchase.

Fructooligosaccharide (FOS) is a type of natural dietary fibre found in small amounts in foods such as onions, garlic, and bananas. In Beksul Yoridag, it is included in syrup form, giving the product a smoother, cleaner sweetness compared to regular sugar. Please note that this product is not a fermented food and is not a probiotic product. It is a cooking sweetener.

Beksul Yoridag is used across a wide range of Korean dishes. Typical uses include Bulgogi and Galbi marinades, Japchae (Korean glass noodle stir-fry), braised dishes (braised fish, braised potatoes, etc.), and stir-fry sauces. Its liquid form dissolves quickly into sauces and adds a beautiful gloss to the surface of dishes. In European cooking, it can also be used as a teriyaki-style glaze, a finishing sauce for roasted vegetables, or to adjust the sweetness in dressings. It can be substituted 1:1 for regular sugar or honey — just reduce the overall liquid content slightly to compensate for its liquid form.

Before opening, store Beksul Yoridag in a cool, dry place (at room temperature) away from direct sunlight. After opening, close the lid tightly and refrigerate, using it as soon as possible. As it is a syrup, take care to prevent moisture or foreign matter from entering. For the exact best-before date, please check the 'Best Before' marking on the product packaging. At 700g, it is a convenient size for households that cook Korean food regularly — typically enough for around 1 to 2 months of use.
