Our Story

Yori was born to bring better Korean flavors to everyday cooking.

Working in the food industry, I saw that Korean sauces and ingredients in the U.S. were made with artificial syrups, preservatives, and colorings. I knew Korean food could be made with the same wholesome, high-quality ingredients found throughout the natural grocery aisle—without sacrificing flavor.

So I started making my own sauces.

Our organic chili and soybean pastes are traditionally fermented in South Korea in earthenware pots for two years. We combine them with fresh, organic ingredients to create modern sauces inspired by my family's recipes and the food I grew up eating.

Like many Korean mothers, my mom's love language is food. She taught me the joy of cooking for others and the way food brings people together. Through Yori, I get to share a piece of what being Korean American means to me.

Thanks for letting us be part of your table.
