Taekyung Chili Powder For Kimchi (Flake, 7oz) - Korean Gochugaru. Red Pepper Spice Seasoning for Asian Food. MSG Free.

Good gochujaru made in Korea

Very humble, excellent spice. I read an article about this chili powder that treated it as an extreme flavor. I found the heat level generally mild, low enough that even my wife (Good Queen Bland) could handle it. Good news, that fact, combined with its excellent smoky flavor means I’ll have many more opportunities to use it. Nice product!

Excellent fragrance and heat. I’ve been using it in both east/western dishes and it adds a noticeable extra flavor and spice

Somehow the flavor in this type of chili pepper is faaar better than other brands or locations. Very good quality and enhanced flavor of the food not only adding spice. I see why this was highly recommended to make kimchi.

So glad to find these chili flakes on Amazon. Purchased this product specifically for making kimchi. If you like spicy food and have a high spice-tolerance, these are NOT for you. Although the flakes are not spicy, it adds a nice touch of color to food (kimchi).

This pepper powder has an amazing flavor! It’s not really a powder like the bottle says, but it’s more finely ground than the typical red pepper flakes you’d find at Italian restaurants or in the grocery store. To me it has a hint of smokiness, and an overall more intense and interesting flavor over regular red pepper flakes. It’s not overpoweringly hot, but it is hotter (in a good way) than regular red pepper flakes. Its not that slow kind of burn heat, but rather hot for a moment, and then gone. Perfect for then you’re eating a fair amount of whatever you’ve used it on. I initially bought this to use to make some banchan, but have since used it on all kinds of things, and its great on just about everything. It’s partially good with hummus, and as an inclusion to various marinades, but you’ll probably find yourself sprinkling it on lots of stuff, and being happy that you did. In looking at the first picture, you may assume this is a standard size spice bottle, but it’s not, its pretty large, and even using it regularly, this should last a substantial amount of time. At quick glance it looks like this is really high in calories for a spice, with 90 per serving. But upon more review, that’s based on only 7 servings per container. Unless you’re running a catering business, there’s no way you’ll only get 7 servings from this, its easily more like 100+ servings for most people. I’m very happy with this purchase. If you’re debating giving this a try, I strongest suggest you go for it.

Excellence.

Worked great in my kimchi great quality and medium size ground
