Gochujang is a traditional Korean fermented chile paste made from dried red chilies, fermented soybeans and sea salt. San Francisco-based Queens ages their gochujang for 90 days and blend in jujubes for a subtle sweetness to balance the heat. When stored in a cool, dark place, it keeps indefinitely and will continue to mature, developing an even more complex flavor profile.
Gochujang is essential for Korean dishes like tteokbokki (spicy stir-fried rice cakes), kimchi jjigae (kimchi stew), and maeun dwaeji bulgogi (spicy marinated pork), but it’s far from limited to Korean cooking. Its thick texture and concentrated, umami-rich flavor make it a versatile tool in the kitchen. Rub it onto butternut squash, carrots, or other root vegetables before roasting, whisk it into mayonnaise for a spicy dipping or sandwich sauce, or use it as a marinade for chicken thighs and other grilled meats.
Queens is a San Francisco-based company creating locally sourced Korean products. They practice sustainable sourcing and traditional methods of fermentation and preservation to achieve traditional Korean flavors. Their products are both traditional and diasporic, drawing influence from their Korean and Korean-American heritages.
