Gwangyang Maehwa Village
In 1965, Hong Ssang Ri (shown below) began to cultivate 2000 plum trees in the countryside of Gyeongnam Province. Maesil-Cheong is the Korean word for plum extract syrup. It can be used for cooking and direct consumption. Hong Ssang Ri's Maesil-Cheong is made with 100% Korean-grown plums. The fresh plums are harvested and covered with an oligosaccharide. It's then aged in traditional onggi jars for six months. The result is a delightfully tart and sweet extract.
Many home cooks use Maesil-Cheong as a substitute for sugar in Korean cooking. That's because it's sweet like sugar but much healthier - packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and aids in digestion. Some people drop a few spoonfuls in water and drink it as iced plum tea.
