Chef's Notes

  • We recommend letting the gochujang sit in the refrigerator 1–2 days before using as it will balance in flavor and texture with time.Gochujang is a great way to add serious flavor without adding a lot of extra salt, sugar, or fat. It also contains miso, a fermented food that supports gut  and overall health.
