Culinary Notes:

With a fruity flavour and warm subtle hum, Korean Chilli Flakes (traditionally called Gochugaru) make a delicious seasoning for savoury food. Traditionally used to make Kimchi, a fermented cabbage condiment from Korea, Gochugaru chilli flakes are very mild in heat, so their full flavour can be tasted without the burn of regular red chilli flakes.

Health benefits:

Gochugaru Chilli Flakes are rich in vitamin E, with enough to account for 14% of your daily recommended intake with just two teaspoons. They also contain high levels of vitamin A, as well as fibre, iron, and minerals such as copper. Like many other chilli varieties, Korean Chillies are good for reducing cholesterol levels and aiding in digestion and speeding up one's metabolism.
