They might sound like they are different names for the same ingredient, each ingredient has its own flavor and its own purpose in the kitchen. Gochujang is a chili paste that is good for building a base in stews, marinades, and more while gochugaru is Korea’s answer to chili powder.

What is Gochugaru?/Shutterstock. Goghugaru is a vibrant red Korean spice made from a blend of hot red pepper flakes. Its texture is somewhere between red pepper flakes and chili powder.
Traditionally, gochugaru is made from sun-dried gochu (red chili peppers), but some modern brands may dry their peppers by machine. Taeyangcho, or peppers that have been sun-dried, are considered to be the best ingredient for gochugaru.
Compared to the types of chili powders that we are familiar with in the United States, such as cayenne and red pepper flakes, gochugaru has a much more complex flavor that has been described as spicy, sweet, and slightly smoky.There are a couple of different types of gochugaru. Maewoon gochugaru is the hottest kind you can buy while deolmaewoon gochugaru is milder. When looking for gochugaru in an Asian supermarket, keep an eye out for anything labeled 태양초, which means that the peppers were sun-dried. It can also be tricky to know that you are buying gochugaru, as many English labels on Korean products can be as misleading. You don’t want to buy anything labeled “red pepper powder,” as this is an entirely different ingredient that is used to make. Gochugaru should have a bright, red color and coarse texture. Once you open a bag of gochugaru, be sure to store it in an airtight container in the freezer in order to maintain freshness.
