Also known as salted anchovies, meljeot

Myeolchi-jeot () or salted anchovies is a variety of jeotgal (salted seafood), made by salting and fermenting anchovies. Along with saeu-jeot (salted shrimps), it is one of the most commonly consumed jeotgal in Korean cuisine. In mainland Korea, myeolchi-jeot is primarily used to make kimchi, while in Jeju Island, meljeot (; myeolchi-jeot in Jeju language) is also used as a dipping sauce. The Chuja Islands, located between South Jeolla and Jeju, are famous for producing the highest quality myeolchi-jeot.
