Gochugaru (in Korean, gochu means "pepper" and garu means "powder") is ideal for all types of kimchi, spicy soups, stews and stir-fries. It enhances any food, Korean or otherwise!
Gochugaru is frequently found in many fermented dishes, including kimchi, kimchi chigae (fermented cabbage soup) and kkakdugi (diced daikon kimchi).
How Is Our Organic Gochugaru Made?
The Korean chili peppers are first grown naturally without pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. Only the highest-quality peppers are selected and washed with clean spring water.
They are then let to sun-dry naturally before being ground. The Korean chili flakes are thoroughly inspected and any impurities are removed.
Sun-dried chili peppers (taeyangcho) are more vibrant and retain more nutrients and flavour than machine-dried chili peppers.
