Gochugaru (고춧가루), or Korean red pepper powder, is a staple ingredient in Korean cuisine, essential for making authentic kimchi and a wide range of spicy dishes. This coarse-ground chilli powder from Shinsunmi offers a moderately spicy heat with a subtly sweet and smoky flavour profile, distinguishing it from other types of chilli flakes. It is the primary seasoning for fermenting kimchi, providing both the iconic red colour and the complex heat. You can also use it to season stews like sundubu-jjigae, marinate meats for Korean BBQ, or create dipping sauces. For best results, add it gradually to your cooking to control the level of spiciness. This large 908g bag is ideal for home cooks who frequently prepare Korean meals, ensuring a long-lasting supply for all your culinary projects. Store in a cool, dry place or refrigerate after opening to preserve its vibrant colour and flavour.
