Description

Gochujang is the paste at the centre of the Korean pantry: sun-dried chilli, glutinous rice, fermented soybean and salt, aged until it is sweet, hot and deeply savoury all at once. It is the base of tteokbokki, the sauce for bibimbap, the marinade for spicy pork and the seasoning in most stews.

Traditionally fermented in Korea. The 195 g jar keeps for months in the fridge once opened; the 1 kg tub is the foodservice format.

What it tastes like

Heat: Slow, rounded
Salt: Fermented soybean
