Compared to porcelain, onggi has a microporous structure and has been found to assist
in the fermentaion in food processing such as the preparation of gochujang
(fermented red chili pepper, bean and rice paste), deonjang(fermented soybean paste),
kimchi (fermented seasoned vegetables), and soy sauce.
- Onggi with proper porosity and permeability needs to be used in order to produce
an optimally ripened quality in fermented foodstuff.
Fine-tuned onggi containers are, in fact, suitable for many different kinds of fermented products.
- The abundance of soybean, which grows naturally in Korea, the fresh fishery resources
from the sea surrounding the Korean peninsula and a proper climate for microbial development,
all give account of the importance of fermentation as food processing.
- However, onggi ware also contributed to the development of fermented dishes within Korean cuisine.
Large onggi ware were stored on the jangdokdae, an elevated floor near the house.
> About Onggi is Korean earthenware, which is extensively used as tableware
as well as storage containers in Korea. It includes both unglazed earthenware fired near 600~700 °C
and pottery with a dark brown glaze that burnt over 1100 °C.
- The origin of onggi dates to approximately 4000 to 5000 BC.
There were two types of earthenware : a patternless earthenware which is called Mumun
and a black and red earthenware.
- The former, a patternless earthenware, was made with lumps of clay including much fine sand ;
however, the predecessor of Goryeo celadon and Joseon white porcelain, a black/red earthenware,
was being made with only lumps of clay. The color of earthenware is determined by the iron contained
in the mud and the way of burning the pottery.
- The present onggi shape dates from the Joseon era. There are many records about onggi in Sejong Sillok Jiriji
("King Sejong's Treatise on Geography"):
"There are three kilns that make the yellow onggi in Chogye-gun and Jinju-mok, Gyeongsang Province".
