[Haetnim Maeul] 100% Sun-Dried Gochugaru (Great for Kimchi)
Haetnim Maeul Gochugaru is made with 100% Korea-grown red chili peppers.
Koreans prefer domestic-grown gochugaru as many of the large Korean congolmerates import lower-quality chilis from China to sell at lower prices.
Haetnim Maeul is a regional producer and prides itself in domestic-only peppers. Their chilis are grown in the rural county of Yeongyang (Gyeongsang Province).
Yeongyang is a mountainous region located in central Korea that gets an ample amount of sunshine throughout the year. There, the chili peppers grow firm and plump. After harvesting, the chilis are dried naturally out in the sun (as opposed to being dried in an industrial-scale dehydrator).
Gochugaru that is dried in the sun is labeled "Taeyang Gochugaru". Taeyang Gochugaru sells at a premium as its believed that the chili develops a deeper and spicier flavor when its dried in the sun.
So what does this gochugaru look like? Take a look at the close-up view. It has a coarse texture and dark-red color.
This coarse texture is great for using when making Kimchi! It sticks on better to the ingredients and doesn't easily wash off when covered in liquid.
But of course, you can use this coarse gochugaru for seasoning other Korean homecooking dishes as well.
This gochugaru comes in two sizes: 250g and 500g.
