Jayeonae 100% Korean sun-dried gochugaru flakes

100% Korean Chili, Naturally Sun-Dried

[Jayeonae] 100% Korean Sun-Dried Chili Pepper Flakes

  • 100% Korea-grown
  • Sun-dried taeyangcho
  • Medium heat
  • Medium-coarse grind

Today, we're introducing a gochugaru that's 100% Korean-grown and naturally sun-dried: Jayeonae taeyangcho gochugaru (자연애 태양초 고춧가루).

Why Korea-grown? Because it's for Korean food. Peppers grown in Korea bring that vivid red color and unmistakable Korean kick. The real deal, not imported.

And it's not just where the peppers are grown, it's how they're dried. Cheaper brands cut corners with machine-drying. This one is sun-dried the old-fashioned way, slowly, under the open sky. That patience pays off: a naturally sweeter, fruitier flavor, a richer aroma, and a red so vivid you can spot the difference. It's the kind of gochugaru Korean cooks reach for when kimchi really has to deliver.

It's certified by Korea's Ministry of Agriculture as 100% Korean-origin, made in a HACCP-certified facility, and carries the Korean Traditional Food mark, so there's no guesswork on quality or authenticity. Traditional kimchi or a weeknight stir-fry, it brings the color, aroma and balanced heat Korean kitchens have trusted for generations.

Make kimchi with it. Make everything with it. Available in 250 g and 500 g.

So what's inside?

[Jayeonae] 100% Korean Sun-Dried Chili Pepper Flakes[자연애] 100% 국산 태양초 고춧가루

Jayeonae 100% Korean sun-dried gochugaru 250 g pouch

100% Korea-Grown Chili Peppers

Rich aroma, vibrant color and clean, balanced heat.

Jayeonae (자연애) gochugaru is made only from Korean-grown chili peppers, dried the traditional way in the sun. Peppers grown in Korea bring that vivid red and unmistakable Korean kick, which is exactly what you want for kimchi and everyday Korean cooking.

It has a medium-coarse grind and a pleasantly balanced, medium heat. It carries Korea's official 100% Korean-origin certification, is made in a HACCP-certified facility, and holds both the Korean Traditional Food mark and the Gyeonggi Province governor's quality mark.

Available in a 250 g or 500 g resealable pouch.

Medium Coarseness

The medium-coarse texture is ideal for making kimchi, seasoning soups and stews, adding depth to stir-fries, or sprinkling into your favorite Korean dishes.

Sun-dried peppers (taeyangcho, 태양초) dry slowly under the open sky instead of in a machine dryer. That patience gives a naturally sweeter, fruitier flavor, a richer aroma and a deep red you can see in the finished dish.
