Premium Korean Gochugaru for Pastes and Everyday Dishes

Taekyung Chili Powder For Paste dives into the heart of Korean cooking. This fine, soft gochugaru powder is designed to blend into pastes, soups, and stews, delivering a bright red hue and a balanced chili warmth.

Packaged as a 1-pound (454 g) jar, it's ready to spark flavor in just a few sprinkles. The powder's fine texture helps it dissolve smoothly into paste bases, like gochujang, or as a direct seasoning to elevate sauces.

Authentic Korean Spice, With Clear Sourcing

Regular spicy flavor sits around 4,500 SHU, offering a dependable heat level that doesn't overwhelm. The peppers are grown on Taekyung's farm using Korean pepper seeds, then ground in a GMP/ISO-certified facility in South Korea, ensuring consistent quality.

A Clean, Pure Pepper Ingredient

100% pepper with no added MSG or additives. Kosher-certified, vegan, gluten-free, and free from fat, sugar, carbs, and cholesterol. This makes it suitable for a wide range of dietary needs and kitchen styles.

Practical Uses and Flavor Ideas

  • To create authentic Korean pastes: sprinkle into beet-red base and blend into savory sauces.
  • Enhance soups and stews: a pinch deepens color and provides a gentle heat.
  • Season marinades and stir-fries: dust over meat, seafood, or vegetables for vibrant flavor.

Pro tip: due to its fine texture, this chili powder disperses evenly, helping you avoid clumps in your pan or paste.

Quality You Can Trust

  • Processed in South Korea at a facility with GMP/ISO certification.
  • Derived from peppers cultivated with Korean seeds to balance cost and quality.
  • Taekyung is a long-standing Korean condiment brand under Nongshim, known globally for reliable flavor.

Whether you're building a traditional gochujang base or spicing up a weeknight recipe, Taekyung Chili Powder For Paste offers a reliable, versatile option that respects Korean culinary heritage while fitting modern kitchens.
