Good Service, great item!

I bought this on a whim wanting "spice up" my breakfast/lunch meal. (pun not entirely intended).I frequently make some white rice, and stir in some eggs, and add a little bit of whatever I have around the house, mushrooms/sausage/peas/carrots/green peppers/onions. That's pretty flavorful, but I wanted something a little more. After some online recipe shopping I came across Gochujang. My little grocery store does not carry it, so I found this product on amazon.It has a decent amount of heat. I find Tabasco and Franks red hot and standard buffalo hot wings and jalapenos are a comfortable level of heat and this is a smidge hotter in my opinion. Also there is a fermented funkiness to this sauce that took a couple of tastes to acquire. This is more of a concentrate and not to be eaten alone (I took a small taste when I got it just to test...not great by itself). Mix it in other stuff.

My local Trader Joe’s was out of this product so I ordered from this store on Amazon. Sadly the tub is much larger than I needed and the price far higher than I typically pay but I needed it quickly for a recipe. Paste is flavorful and good however the safety seal was broken when I received the item and much of the paste leaked out. That was a negative.

This tub is going to last me forever! Fortunately, the container and ingredients are shelf stable because this would never fit in my fridge! Great value for the price and an amazing flavor bomb for a variety of dishes!

Hunts and Heinz are two great ketchups yet both are completely different in flavor. I find I like Heinz better for its sweetness but Hunts does well when making certain sauces thanks to its tanginess. Same with gochujang. I consider gochuchang the ketchup of Korea. The many different brands which offer this spicy condiment really depends on the individual tongue. I have bought another brand - Sunchang and found that one thick like miso which I don't mind at all but I also found it saltier with just a tinge of sweetness.Sempio is sweeter but not too sweet, it is like the Heinz ketchup. The consistency is less of a paste but more of a liquidy type condiment like a mustard on a sandwich. This, by the way, is great on sandwiches! It is slightly spicier than the Sunchang but not as much since both are at a level 3 out of 5. The burn only lasts a few minutes then completely disappears.Again, this gochuchang can be used with any dish, there are no restrictions in the way to use it. It is all just a matter of taste and preference.

I love cooking with this pepper paste. It is the perfect amount of spicy and has a little bit of a sweet after taste too. It's one of my favorites! I like the large tub as it lasts for about a year. I just bought my second one as my first ran out.

Too spicy

Je me suis faite arnaquer;(

È la seconda volta che lo compro, la prima in formato più piccolo per paura non piacesse. È diventata la mia salsa preferita, quasi come una droga! È piccante abbastanza , va dosata con attenzione se è la prima volta che la assaggiata. Se mischiata ad altri condimenti, come salsa di soia o salsa di ostriche è spettacolare! Insomma sperimentate vari piatti coreani con questa salsa non ve né pentirete!

The Sempio gochujang keeps forever, tastes good and has many uses, not just in Korean cuisine but across the board. Whip up a gochujang mayonnaise, and you immediately have a dip for those, who like a kick of spice with their crisps.

I’ve purchased this several times. It is consistently good and what I expect.

Per chi ama il cibo piccante e i sapori forti e decisi, questa pasta è assolutamente l'ideale. E' molto versatile e si può impiegare non solo in preparazioni etniche, ma anche nella cucina italiana. La conoscevo già, ma non l'avevo mai acquistata on line, e sono assolutamente soddisfatta
