Gochujang (고추장、) is a spicy Korean
condiment, made from
glutinous rice powder mixed with powdered fermented
soybeans,
red chili powder, and salt, and
fermented, traditionally in the sun. Other grains can be substituted for the
glutinous rice, including normal rice,
wheat, and
barley. A small amount of sweetener, such as sugar, syrup, or
honey is also sometimes added. It is a dark, reddish paste with a rich, spicy flavour.
