''Jwipo'' () is a traditional Korean pressed fish jerky sold as a street snack. Made from the filefish (in Korean, ''jwichi''), it is seasoned, flattened, and dried. ''Jwichi'' meat has a subtle sweet flavor, but ''jwipo'''s sweetness comes from added sugar. It is traditionally served hot, heated on a burner until it curls. Making process ''Jwipo'' is made from various species of filefish, such as ''Thamnaconus modestus'' or '' Stephanolepis cirrhifer.'' First the fish is skinned and filleted, and after washing, the fillets are seasoned, by soaking in a sugar and seasoning solution, or by mixing or tumbling the fillets together with the seasoning. Then they are shaped and arranged on a drying rack. The ''jwipo'' can be shaped free-form, or with the help of templates. After being shaped, the ''jwipo'' is dried at low temperatures. Consumption ''Jwipo'' can be roasted or grilled, or eaten uncooked. ''Gochujang'' or mayonnaise can be used as a dip. ''Jwipo'' can become an ingredie ...

Filefish
The filefish (Monacanthidae) are a diverse family of tropical to subtropical tetraodontiform marine fish, which are also known as foolfish, leatherjackets, or shingles. They live in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. Filefish are closely related to triggerfish, pufferfish, and trunkfish. The filefish family comprises about 102 species in 27 genera. More than half of the species are found in Australian waters, with 58 species in 23 genera. Their laterally compressed bodies and rough, sandpapery skin inspired the filefish's common name. Description Appearing very much like their close relatives the triggerfish, filefish are rhomboid-shaped, with beautifully elaborate cryptic patterns. Deeply keeled bodies give a false impression of size when the fish are viewed facing the flanks. Filefish have soft, simple fins, with comparatively small pectoral fins and truncated, fan-shaped tail fins; a slender, retractable spine crowns the head. Although usually two of these spines oc ...

Stephanolepis Cirrhifer
''Stephanolepis cirrhifer'', commonly known as the thread-sail filefish, is a species of marine fish in the family Monacanthidae. It is found in the western Pacific, in an area that ranges from northern Japan to the East China Sea, to Korea. The fish grows to a maximum length of about , and consumes both plant material and small marine organisms like skeleton shrimp. ''S. cirrhifer'' is host of the parasite '' Peniculus minuticaudae''. Some minor genetic differentiation between ''S. cirrhifer'' born in the wild and those bred in a hatchery for consumer use has been shown. The fish is edible and sold commercially for culinary purposes in many Asian countries. Names In Japan, it is known as . In Korea, it is known as ''jwi-chi'' (쥐치). In Russian, it is called "small striped triggerfish".(Спинорог малый полосатый) Other English names include "file fish", "fool fish", and "porky".

It is made from '' gochugaru'' (red chili powder), glutinous rice, '' meju'' (fermented soybean) powder, ''yeotgireum'' (barley malt powder), and salt. The sweetness comes from the starch of cooked glutinous rice, cultured with saccharifying enzymes during the fermentation process.

''Jorim'' () is a category of dishes in Korean cuisine, made by simmering vegetables, meat, fish, seafood, or tofu in seasoned broth until the liquid is absorbed into the ingredients and reduced down. ''Jorim'' dishes are usually soy sauce-based, but ''gochujang'' (pepper paste) or ''gochugaru'' (pepper flakes) can also be added, especially when fishier, red-fleshed fish such as mackerel, saury, or hairtail are used.

Instead, ''jorim'' dishes were classified as ''jochi'', a category that encompasses ''jjim'' and '' jjigae'' as well as ''jorim''. The first mention of the verbal noun ''jorim'' as a food category appeared in '' Siuijeonseo'', a 19th-century cookbook, in ...

Snack Foods
A snack is a small portion of food generally eaten between meals. Snacks come in a variety of forms including packaged snack foods and other processed foods, as well as items made from fresh ingredients at home. Traditionally, snacks are prepared from a number of ingredients commonly available at home without a great deal of preparation. Often cold cuts, fruits, leftovers, nuts, sandwiches, and sweets are used as snacks. With the spread of convenience stores, packaged snack foods became a significantly profitable business. Snack foods are typically designed to be portable, quick, and satisfying. Processed snack foods, as one form of convenience food, are designed to be less perishable, more durable, and more portable than prepared foods. They often contain substantial amounts of sweeteners, preservatives, and appealing ingredients such as chocolate, peanuts, and specially designed flavors (such as flavored potato chips). Aside from the use of additives, the viabi ...
