Gochujang Spicy Korean Pepper Paste 500g

Gochujang is a spicy Korean paste used as a food seasoning, made from red chilli peppers, sticky rice, fermented soybeans and salt. Traditionally, gochujang has been fermented for years by storing the paste outside in earthenware vessels, usually on a stone base called jangdokdae.

Gochujang has most likely been used in Korea since the late 18th century after chilli peppers were brought to Japan in the 16th century. Modern gochujang is produced in a similar way.

Gochujang paste is often used in Korean cuisine to season stewed stews, marinate meat,

for making sauces or as a seasoning. Other pastes and spices can also be prepared on the basis of gochujang. Gochujang is one of the three basic and essential spices of Korean cuisine - along with doenjang and ganjang.
