The soul of Korean cooking, and there is no substitute for it. The deep red hue lifts the look of a dish, and the flakes dissolve into a marinade instead of sitting on top of it.

Mildly sweet, lightly smoky, pleasantly fruity, and the heat stays gentle, so it can be used generously without burying what it seasons. The only right choice for authentic kimchi; just as good in tteokbokki, a bulgogi marinade, dipping sauces and warming soups.

Ingredients: Dried, crushed, seedless Gochugaru chili (100%).
