Gochujang (고추장) is a staple Korean chilli paste made from red chilli powder, glutinous rice, fermented soybeans, and salt. This version from Daesang O'Food delivers a rich, complex flavour that is savoury, slightly sweet, and distinctly spicy, with a thick consistency perfect for cooking. It is a fundamental ingredient in many Korean dishes, used to add depth and heat to stews like kimchi jjigae, to marinate meats for Korean BBQ, or as a base for dipping sauces. For a classic dipping sauce, simply mix a spoonful of gochujang with sesame oil, a little sugar, and minced garlic. This particular product is halal-certified, making it suitable for those following a halal diet. It's an essential pantry item for anyone looking to recreate authentic Korean flavours at home, from spicy tteokbokki (rice cakes) to bibimbap.
