About Gochujang paste
Gochujang paste is a staple in Korean cuisine, known for its bold, spicy-sweet flavor and vibrant red hue. It is traditionally made from fermented soybean powder, glutinous rice, red chili peppers, and salt, creating a thick, flavorful condiment used in dishes like bibimbap, tteokbokki, and marinades. The fermentation process contributes beneficial probiotics that support gut health, while chili peppers provide a metabolism-boosting kick and are rich in antioxidants. However, Gochujang can be high in sodium and added sugars, so moderation is key for maintaining heart health and balanced blood sugar levels. Its complex taste enhances meals with minimal quantities, making it a versatile and flavorful addition to a healthy diet when used mindfully.
