Why we chose this: just north of the middle in terms of both heat and sweetness, all-rounder Korean staple
If it’s the one thing a Korean pantry or fridge (‘cos refrigerate after opening) must have is a reliable gochujang - it is probably the no. 1 staple. Simply, it is a fermented red pepper paste, with a flavour profile that combines savoury, sweet and spicy. You’ll find gochujang in all the widely known Korean dishes, a stir-in coating for the famed bibimbap, bibimnaegmyeon and tteokbokki and dipping sauce or marinade for Korean BBQ and dressing for salads.
Taste: Medium-high heat, medium sweetness, medium savoury
Uses: Put it over bibimbap, noodles and rice cakes, use it as a condiment for BBQ, marinade veggies or meat, spice up your soups and salads.
