The Design
About Gilsang 7days Kit de Fermentação Caseira
Gilsang 7days é um kit de fermentação caseira para makgeolli, a tradicional bebida coreana à base de arroz. O kit adapta uma receita do Sanga Yorok, um texto culinário coreano do século XV, transformando-a num processo simples de sete dias. O mingau previamente cozido e o arroz cozido a vapor são fornecidos em recipientes selados, juntamente com nuruk e um pano de coar, exigindo assim pouca preparação. A esterilização a alta temperatura garante segurança e uma longa validade. A embalagem é feita de papel ecológico com a textura de manuscritos antigos, e um código impresso dá acesso a guias em vídeo em vários idiomas.
