Food Library The Magic Of Nature Gochugaru Korean Chilli Powder, 100g | Authentic Korean Red Pepper Flakes for Kimchi, Soups, Stir-Fries & Korean BBQ

Sorry to say this time zater powder is not like before in the taste and colour as feeling dust in the powder not green seems that grinded in the machine

The bottle cap was not screwed on properly, hence there was a little spillage. The packaging to prevent glass breakage was very good though. Gochugaru has a tendency to get fungus very easily, hence as mentioned on the bottle, it HAS to be stored in an airtight container if you want it to last at least a few months. I also prefer storing it in the freezer, to maintain freshness (as recommended by several Korean cooks). The taste is not as spicy for the typical Indian palate. It has the smoky hot flavour as usual, but don’t expect to be knocked out of your senses with the spice. Gochugaru in reality isn’t as spicy as certain chillies available in India.

Very strong and potent nice fresh flavor. Great quality! Made Zatar with it that reminded me of eating it in Palestine.

Far too smoky compared to authentic ones. The color is also darker and not bright red. So the kimchi I made with this came out all wrong. I’ve had authentic kimchi before and I’ve made kimchi before using other peppers, and this didn’t meet my expectations.

Since we are a sushi loving family, we learned how to make it during the extended lockdown and I can say with some authority that this is the best wasabi in the Indian market today cause I have tried other makes of wasabi powder, the wasabi tube and they have all fallen short.

Since the brand I usually use was out of stock, I ordered this one. The color seemed much darker and smells a bit of stale oil, like when nuts go offa similar smell. Usually natural Sumac addds a nice pink red color to the dish but this one did nothing. The taste was also almost non existent. I checked the date and it was packed this month and expires in a few months but I think they are just repacking old stuff. Not nice. But from urban platter it's way better.

The packaging is good and the product is of good quality. The taste is somewhat bland. I do not know how black bean sauce is supposed to taste but I really cannot taste anything at all! I followed an online recipe for using the *powder* for black bean noodles. The noodles tasted better after I took the liberty to add in some spices, out of the recipe. So, IT WILL BE REALLY HELPFUL IF YOU HAVE TIPS ON HOW TO MAKE SAUCE USING THIS POWDER.

Mix some with soy sauce, hot chilli sauce and add to noodles. Loved it
