Gochujang Hot Red Pepper Paste 500 g

Excellent product. I add a couple of teaspoons to my spaghetti bolognaise recipe for a slight twist! Delicious!! Also good for Chilli con Carne, or stir fry.

Good price, quick delivery, good quality, good heat.

I love this paste really tasty, especially with sea food Good value for money Will buy it again

I bought this so I could cook some authentic tteokbokki and other Korean dishes, as I was watching Bon Appetite, Your Majesty and Business Proposal and the food looked really tasty. There isn't a Korean restaurant around here and I love to cook, so I have little choice but to make it myself. It's a very warm kind of heat, it's quite spicy, I use one heaped teaspoon in the recipe I found (500g of ricecakes), and I like mild to medium heat so it was at my limit, but then it dies away and leaves a tingling heat behind, that compliments the other flavours bringing them out. My first try didn't go all that well as I used the wrong rice cakes, but second time around was amazing. I also add it to my Chili too to give it a little Korean twist. Going to add a little bit to my next K-recipe I'm attempting tonight: Bibimbap. Presented nicely in a sturdy tub, though the whole lid pops off when opening, but that's not really an issue for me. My English tastes buds really enjoyed this.

Very good quality paste, I have bought other brands but this one pips all of them. When making home made Kimchi I substitute half the required Korean chilli powder with a tablespoon of this, people rave about my kimchi. It’s also fab for Korean chilli chicken too which is easy and ideal BBQ’d and served in tacos with salad for a hassle free gathering, or oven baked with rice and salad… Recipe serves 4 : Roughly chop 3 cloves of garlic and a thumb sized piece of ginger & pop into a blender with 2 tablespoons each of Korean/Chinese rice wine (normal wine will do), 2 of soy sauce, then add 1 heaped tablespoon of this chilli paste and a tablespoon of toasted sesame seed oil, blitz till smooth then rub into 6-8 chicken thighs, leave covered to marinate for 1 hour then either bbq or pop onto a greased baking tray into the oven at 190 degrees for 25 minutes or 35 minutes if using bone in thighs… Yum 😋

Really good paste, heat is mild. Definitely value for money. Flavour tastes a little like Thai curry paste

great item, good price, prompt delivery. What more could you ask for?

I have ordered this 7 times and every time it’s perfect. I’m so grateful it’s also gluten free. Perfect for all the dishes I make. Highly recommend. It adds spice without it blowing your head off. I don’t know the shelf life because I use it way to quickly for it to even consider going out of date hahaha.

This used to be around ₹500 but for some reason its jumped up in price and stayed that way for a good while. That said nothing and I mean nothing beats this in taste. I've tried other brands, there's a certain mix of tart and heat that you just do not get from the others. I mean if you're using it for daily cooking I wouldn't buy this, the Indian brands work well enough. But if you eat some dishes only on cheat days and want that authentic flavor nothing really beats the Chung Jung . The other brands tend to be a bit more sour, a bit more akin to tomato paste than a chilie paste.

Tastes great, arrived very quickly

Buono.
