O'FOOD Gochujang Vegan - 500 gr. pot

Gochujang, a staple in Korean cuisine, is a fermented chilli paste that brings a unique blend of sweet, savoury, and spicy flavours to the table. Its vibrant red hue and thick consistency are derived from a combination of gochu-garu (chilli powder), glutinous rice, meju-garu (fermented soybean powder), yeotgireum (barley malt powder), and salt. 

This condiment is traditionally used in a variety of Korean dishes to impart a rich depth of flavour. For instance, it serves as the backbone of the beloved dish bibimbap, where it’s mixed with rice, vegetables, and beef. Gochujang also adds a kick to tteokbokki, a popular street food featuring stir-fried rice cakes. Moreover, it’s an essential ingredient in dakgalbi, a spicy chicken stir-fry that’s enjoyed for its hearty and warming qualities.

In British kitchens, gochujang can be used to innovate and elevate classic recipes. It’s excellent for marinating meats, such as in a Korean-style roast chicken, where it infuses the poultry with a bold and complex flavour. Vegetarians might enjoy it in a spicy bean stew, adding a touch of Korean zest to a British comfort food.
