Description
Gochugaru — Korean sun-dried red pepper flakes — exists in two essential forms with completely different applications: coarse (for kimchi and most dishes) and fine (for pastes and sauces). Both are made from the same pepper variety (primarily the Cheongyang or Daytona varieties) but the particle size affects not just texture but the extraction rate of capsaicin and colour compounds.
