About Gochujung
Gochujang is a traditional Korean fermented chili paste made from red chili powder, glutinous rice, fermented soybeans, and salt. This thick, deep-red condiment is a cornerstone of Korean cuisine, offering a complex flavor profile that is simultaneously spicy, sweet, and savory. Rich in vitamins and minerals, gochujang's fermentation process enhances its probiotic content, which supports gut health. It is low in fat but can be high in sodium, so consumption should be moderated. Packed with capsaicin from the chili peppers, it may boost metabolism and promote heart health. Gochujang is often used to add depth to marinades, stews, stir-fries, or sauces, making it a versatile addition to a balanced diet. However, due to its sodium content, those monitoring their salt intake should use it sparingly.
