I bought this syrup to make several Korean recipes that called for it. It's my understanding that this rice syrup is a little different from the brown rice syrup made and sold in the US. I wanted authentic ingredients, which is why I chose to buy this.
This syrup is very thick, and it's kind of sticky. I had to squeeze it out of the bottle because it was too thick to pour. It doesn't have a lot of flavor and it's not super sweet, but then it's not supposed to be drizzled over pancakes so that's okay. The purpose is to add just the right amount of sweetness and gloss to Korean recipes. I use it in Korean sauces and side dishes.
If you are looking for standard brown rice syrup for baking, you might want to try Lundberg. If you are preparing authentic Korean dishes, you'll definitely want to use the real thing. The Ottogi brand has a good reputation for quality, and it's imported from Korea. I'll keep buying this.
Used this for Mangchii's korean chicken wings from youtube. Best I've had in a long time. I highly recommend this if you're like me and don't have any korean grocery stores nearby!!!

I was looking for rice syrup to make my own KIND bars. I tried using honey with lite corn syrup but could not get the crispy texture. I couldn't find rice syrup locally so of course I went on Amazon.I decided to try this Korean brand and I am glad that I did. I made 2 different KIND bars today plus a large tray of other granola bars and they came out perfect. Very tasty. I make my own vanilla and ginger syrups but rice syrup was a little more complicated.Loved this one so much I just ordered 2 more bottles.
I did a bit of research and opted to try this for my homemade granola. Although most recipes prescribe brown rice syrup, this did the trick too. I actually feel like it tastes LESS sweet than brown rice syrup. Since I actually don't prefer an overly sweet granola, this is ideal. The BONUS is that I'm going to try to use this in my bulgogi/kalbi recipes and see if it really does make Korean food more authentic at home.
The bottle DID come in a plastic bag, so I think the complaints about the syrup oozing out is mitigated. It was the consistency of a slightly runny honey, easily workable with a rubber spatula. Combining with coconut oil, granola, nuts, etc.; it made an excellent bar that had a good bite and held together very well. Was not crumbly nor hard.
I use this as a sweetener for my husband's favorite dessert- a healthier spin on rice crispy treats using peanut butter and a sticky liquid sweetener. Honey adds too much of it's own flavor, agave is too sweet, maple syrup makes the rice crisps soggy- this stuff is perfect! Bonus- a friend is allergic to corn syrup and she was thrilled to be introduced to this product.
When I make an Oriental dish, some dishes leave me feeling like something is missing in the ingredients. I now add this when those not so great dishes are made and yes it definitely makes a difference. Packaging was excellent, price was fair, and delivery was ahead of schedule. I will order again!
I thought it would be cheaper to go this route versus the organic more expensive route of other brands but I’ll definitely fork over the extra money for other brands next time for better quality.
