Gochujang is classic Korean chilli bean paste that adds an authentic, spicy Korean kick to your cooking. It's popular as a marinade, seasoning, dipping sauce, condiments, and more. Get creative and try it with soups, stews, spicy stir-fries, Korean fried chicken, tteokbboki, and rice dishes such as bibimbap.

We love experimenting with gochujang recipes even with Western recipes and sometimes discover it producing unexpectedly tasty results. We've found that one of the simplest ways to use it is to add it to plain boiled rice. Alternatively, it makes the perfect condiment for your next summer BBQ.
