Gochugaru Chili Flakes are gently spicy with a mellow fruitiness and vibrant red color. Their heat builds gradually, making them as flavorful as they are versatile.
Our chili flakes are sourced from Andong, South Korea, a region known for exceptional chilis with balanced heat and natural sweetness. The chilis are dried and crushed into coarse flakes that retain both their bright aroma and subtle texture, giving dishes warmth and visual appeal.
Gochugaru is essential in Korean cooking, especially for kimchi, but its versatility goes far beyond that. Stir it into soups and stews, toss it with noodles, whisk it into marinades or sprinkle it over roasted vegetables and pizza when you want depth, color and balanced heat in one pinch.

Sourcing
Our Gochugaru comes from Andong, South Korea, one of the country’s most respected chili-growing regions. In Korea, the government oversees the collection, grading, drying and grinding of chili flakes to ensure quality and consistency across the market.
We purchase the highest grade available, made exclusively from chilis grown on small farms in the Andong region. Many of these farms are run by older-generation growers who have cultivated peppers for decades. We select premium-grade flakes that meet strict quality standards for freshness, color and flavor.
