Company introduction

[SEOKGOK NONGHYUP]
Organic Baeksemi is the world's first domestic rice cultivated after 20 years of research and development using traditional breeding methods. It has been cultivated since 2015 and is produced as a local specialty rice of Seokgok Agricultural Cooperative in Gokseong, Jeollanam-do. It contains low protein content of 5.3% with a savory scent and chewy texture with a rice value over 85 and an amylose content of 12+-1%. Such characteristic is helpful in maintaining a savory scent and chewy texture even after 24 hours of cooking and cooling. Baeksemi handmade nurungji processed with our own rice prides a savory taste compared to other nurungji products since it is thinly spread and baked in a cast iron cauldron. Furthermore, the elderly who couldn't enjoy traditional nurungji because of their fragile teeth can enjoy freely since it's soft compared to other Nurungji products.

[Clean Area Gokseong_Organic Baeksemi Handmade Cauldron Rice Crisp].
Baeksemi handmade cauldron nurungji is made from organic rice grown in Gokseong, Jeollanam-do. Since 2015, an organic complex has been created managed through contract cultivation while the Baeksemi has been designated as a regional specialty rice. This is not a conventional nurungji product which mimics nurungji by pressing it but instead, has a thin and crispy texture/taste by pressing it directly from an iron cauldron by a spatula in a traditional method. It is made with patented rice that smells like nurungji making it more savory than existing Nurungji products. Also, it is 100% white rice nurungji manufactured without any additional additives.
