Kochujang Sauce image

This sauce is used in a few Korean dishes; most notably in Bi Bim Bap, but can also be used as a dip for vegetables, a flavouring for soups and stir-fry and as a marinade for grilled or barbecued tofu. I am new to Korean food, but we have a young Korean girl staying with us for 5 months, so I have been trying Korean recipes. She gave my Bi Bim Bap and 8 out of 10! A Korean friend of mine also tried my Kochujang Sauce and told me that my recipe was better than hers. I found this recipe on asiarecipe.com under the Korean sauces heading. Kochujang is a thick, miso-like paste made of soybean paste, red pepper powder and glutinous rice flour. Some brands are hotter than others.

This sauce is delicious! It's not too spicy, and it has a nice, tangy flavor. I used it to make japchae, and it was a hit with my friends.

This is the best gochujang sauce I've ever tasted! It's spicy but not overpowering, and it has just the right amount of sweetness. I used it to make bulgogi, and it was a hit with my family.
