{"id":625,"count":70,"description":"<strong>Gochujang<\/strong> is a <strong>Korean<\/strong> condiment made from <strong>chili peppers<\/strong>, glutinous <strong>rice<\/strong>, fermented soybeans, and salt. This <strong>spicy<\/strong> red paste adds <strong>flavor<\/strong> and heat to many Korean dishes like bibimbap, tteokbokki, and bulgogi. <strong>Traditionally<\/strong>, gochujang was made by fermenting a paste of glutinous rice, soybeans, salt, and pepper powder in large earthen pots outdoors for months. The <strong>process<\/strong> breaks down the starches and proteins in the rice and beans, developing complex <strong>savory<\/strong> and <strong>sweet<\/strong> flavors. Modern gochujang is often made more <strong>quickly<\/strong> using manufactured <strong>meju<\/strong> powder. The <strong>paste<\/strong> can range from mild to fiery hot depending on the <strong>amount<\/strong> of <strong>chili powder<\/strong> used. Try gochujang to add a <strong>unique<\/strong>, <strong>rich<\/strong> <strong>kick<\/strong> to your cooking!","link":"https:\/\/unlimited-recipes.com\/gochujang\/","name":"Korean Chili Paste (Gochujang)","slug":"gochujang","taxonomy":"category","parent":0,"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/unlimited-recipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/625"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/unlimited-recipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/unlimited-recipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/category"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/unlimited-recipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?categories=625"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
