Gochujang (고추장) is a fundamental Korean red pepper paste, essential for adding authentic flavour and heat to many dishes. This paste is made from fermented soybeans, red chilli powder, glutinous rice, and salt, creating a unique profile that is savoury, slightly sweet, and spicy. Its thick, sticky texture makes it a versatile ingredient for both cooking and as a condiment. Use it to marinate meats for Korean BBQ, stir into the base of stews like kimchi jjigae, or mix into a dipping sauce for vegetables and bibimbap. A small amount adds significant depth and a gentle warmth to weeknight stir-fries or noodle dishes. This product is a staple for anyone looking to explore the core tastes of Korean cuisine. Contains WHEAT and SOY.
