Marinades, condiments, and sauces play an important role in Korean cooking. Meats, seafood, and even vegetables are often marinated in a seasoning mixture prior to cooking.
Seasoned oils or soy sauces are used for assorted dipping sauce with dumplings, meats. fish, and vegetables.
Condiments
There are two general categories of Korean condiments, fermented and un-fermented.
Fermented condiments include some basics like soy sauce, doenjang (fermented soy bean paste), gochujang (fermented red chili pepper paste), vinegars, fish sauce, and different types of jeotgal (salted, fermented seafood).
Un-fermented condiments include red chili powder, chives, scallions, garlic, onions, seasoned flavoring oils, and more.
There is also a third grouping that is small but growing - Korean Fusion. These are condiments that incorporate Korean ingredients mixed with adopted ingredients like ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, and others.
Early Korean cuisine differed from other cuisines in that Koreans seasoned many foods before cooking, where others either did not season or used seasonings after cooking.
