Instructions
- 1
Rinse black soybeans and soak for at least 8 hours.
- 2
Simmer soaked beans with water and kelp over medium-low heat for 20 minutes.
- 3
Remove kelp, then add soy sauce and brown sugar; braise 10 more minutes.
- 4
When beans are tender, add corn syrup and reduce 3–4 minutes until glossy.

Tips
Adding soy sauce too early can keep beans firm.
Cooling fully before refrigerating helps maintain a glossy finish.
