What they are exactly remains a mystery to me.

Then I happened to check the imported section of a mall in Cagayan De Oro City, Philippines and saw the mushroom seasoning gamchimi.<br /><br />I would like to know the ingredients of this seasoning because my daughter is very sensitive with some chemicals. I hope you will be able to give me information about this. Is this a pure mushroom? or some ingredients are mixed in it?<br /><br />I will be waiting for your reply.<br /><br />Thank you so much...mentorbritainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16641663139641974705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-753533232384973471.post-48387944082849238072013-03-12T14:51:25.707-07:002013-03-12T14:51:25.707-07:00I came to your post on another quest.

I was watching a TV Show of "The Best Things I Ever Ate" and they had the Boiling Crab restaurant on, and they were showing how they made the boiled shrimp there. They listed the ingredients as they went along, but naturally at the end, show a "secret ingredient". I was searching for something that resembled the look of it.
