Gochugaru chili powder

Gochugaru: the heart of Korean cuisine

The name is derived from "gochu," meaning chili pepper, and "garu," meaning powder. This powder, made from sun-dried chili peppers, is crucial in many Korean dishes.

Taste it!

The taste of gochugaru is unique. It has a mild but recognizable spiciness, coupled with a smoky aroma and a slight fruity undertone. This combination of flavors adds a complex depth to dishes. Gochugaru is also suitable for a wide range of culinary uses. For example, it is ideal in stews and sauces, and you can also use it in salads and side dishes.

A versatile pasta

One of the most famous uses of gochugaru is in gochujang, a popular Korean chili paste. Gochujang - known for its unique balance of heat, sweetness and umami - is used in a variety of dishes, from marinades to dipping sauces. Finely ground gochugaru powder forms the basis of this versatile paste.

Gochugaru is also known as "kimchi powder" because of its essential role in the preparation of kimchi, Korea's national dish. It gives kimchi its characteristic reddish color and spicy flavor. In doing so, gochugaru is responsible for both the taste and fermentation process of this beloved Korean delicacy.

Do it yourself

For those who enjoy making their own gochujang or kimchi, gochugaru is a must-have. It is generally not as hot as some other chili powders, adding a subtle kick to your dishes.

By adding gochugaru to your kitchen arsenal, you open the door to an authentic and rich world of Korean flavors. It is not just a flavoring, but a cultural experience, capturing the essence of Korean cuisine in every spicy, smoky grain.
