Fine Red Pepper Powder

Fine Red Pepper Powder

A vibrant, finely ground Korean red pepper powder (gochugaru) prized for its bright colour, balanced heat, and clean, slightly sweet flavour. Milled to a smooth, dust-like texture, this powder dissolves easily into soups, stews, sauces, marinades, and dressings, delivering even heat and consistent color without the coarse chew of flakes.
