Hwawoodang is a ready-to-eat seafood brand born in Gunsan, Jeollabuk-do — the heart of West Sea seafood. With years of hands-on experience in the seafood industry and a commitment to processing straight from the source, we bring you the true freshness and flavor of the sea.

100% Wild-Caught Gunsan Cuttlefish

Fresh cuttlefish from Gunsan, Jeollabuk-do, is purchased in full through the local fisheries cooperative to ensure reliable freshness. Korean cuttlefish's signature soft, clean flavor comes together with a satisfying chewy texture for a deep, rich taste.

A Spicy, Savory Kick from Our Signature Sauce

Hwawoodang's own signature seasoning adds a spicy, savory kick to tender cuttlefish. This sweet and spicy sauce pairs perfectly with rice bowls and thin wheat noodles, and works just as well in dishes like ojingeo-samgyeopsal bulgogi or Chungmu gimbap.

Stir-Fried Cuttlefish, Made Easy — No Prep Needed

Cuttlefish, which usually requires tricky prep work, comes cleanly prepped and pre-scored to let the sauce soak in fully. After thawing, just stir-fry in a pan for 5–7 minutes for restaurant-quality stir-fried cuttlefish.

How to Thaw

Add the contents to a heated pan and stir-fry for 5–7 minutes until the sauce is fully absorbed. Add vegetables like onion, scallions, or bean sprouts to taste for an even heartier dish.
