Jangjorim (장조림)

Jangjorim is a side dish made with beef braised in soy sauce in order to store the meat for a long period. Also called jangyuk, the recipe dates back a very long time as records on the dish can be found in 3,000-year-old ancient documents. It wasn’t a common side dish until the Joseon era because butchering was prohibited without official permission. Even until through 1960s or 1970s, it was considered an haute side dish.
