I'm happy to be able to get this product on Amazon! It makes wonderful kimchi! I don't know exactly what makes this different than, say, cayenne pepper flakes, but it does seem to have a darker flavor. This is about the same heat level as good cayenne. Do not use 'crushed red pepper' because that is cayenne mixed with dried red bell pepper to 'water it down.'
For great kimchi, mix up a healthy handful of this along with about 3/4 as much rice vinegar and sesame oil combined to make a somewhat thin paste. It's not an exact science; I use the smell to tell me how much of everything is enough. Take a deep whiff; it should make you go, "Mmmmm...." Mix in a good, heavy dose of kosher or pickling salt and spread it all over a variety of chopped veggies, with Nappa cabbage as the dominant veg. I also like grated carrot, coarsely chopped onion and green cabbage. Broccoli works well, but it will maintain its own flavor. The pepper paste may not seem like enough for all your veg, but keep mixing it with your hands until the orange gunk is evenly coated over everything. Now take a taste. The first flavor to hit your tongue should be salt (but not too much salt) followed by a very tiny bite of vinegar and a good, smoldering back flavor of spicy heat. That just tells you that you have made enough paste and in the right proportions; the finished kimchi will taste better than this because the flavors will be married together. The veg should start to make liquid and break down in size. Store the mix in a stainless steel or glass bowl or, better yet, a ceramic crock at cool-to-room temperature for anywhere from 3 days to a week, covered with cheesecloth, stirring everyday to keep the veg moist in the juice. Basements are great places for this.

This is exactly what I was looking for! Delicious flavor for just about anything we make. If you're looking for Korean red pepper to make kimchi with--you've come to right place! I highly recommend this product.

I bought this to make Kimchi. My Korean friend said to beware and make sure it's made in Korea and not China. There are no standards in China and she read a report that the Chinese manufacturers would grind up leather and other products to put in their red pepper flakes. I looked on-line at this bag and saw it had a Korean manufacturers name. I thought I was safe. When the package arrived, I looked at it closely (something I couldn't do on-line) and saw that although it has a Korean Manufacturer, it is processed in China!!!!! I'm so disappointed! I am going to return it.

I was making Kimchi for the first time and my friend had given me this pepper. It is not like other pepper in that it adds more flavor than anything else. I add a very hot chili power to make my Kimchi hot, i use this pepper to give it flavor.

I really like the red color of these beautiful, fresh and crisp chili flakes. They look pretty in my home made kim chee which I made for the first time. Package arrived in a timely manner and was secure sealed. A pleasure doing business with your company.
