Siryak-tyamuri
''Siryak-tyamuri'' (; ) or ''sirak-jangmul'' (Koryo-mar: 시락장물; ; ) is a stew in Koryo-saram cuisine that uses fermented soybean paste ('' jai''; 자이; ) as the primary flavorant for the broth. It is a descendent of the Korean dish ''siraegi'' ''doenjang-guk'', and prominently features ''siraegi'', dried radish stems. The dish is considered a staple for Koryo-saram, leading one journalist to remark that the Korean people can survive on just lettuce, ''doenjang'', and rice.

It is known to be consumed in Koryo-saram enclaves in South Korea, including Ttaetgol Village. It has also been served as ceremoni ...
