When Aaron said that statement about the tub of Gochujang paste hiding away at the back of the fridge, I felt that he was speaking to me directly. :D Can you also make a video on soy bean paste because I have a tub of that as well, currently giving company to my gochujang. :D
The way you two make all your recipes/ingredients seem less intimidating is so great! Wish I had your encouragement when I started cooking Korean food. Sharing culture, family, friends, and food can bring the world together. You guys are fantastic, keep up the great teamwork!
"you've been missing one of the biggest happiness in your life. But it's never too late, just run into your kitchen" Somehow these words sound so comforting 🥺❤️
He has that same sweet, uplifting chilled out vibe that Maangchi has. It's a lovely energy to absorb and be around, that sort of self-propelling, constructive, goofy and easy-going attitude. Great way to turn mountains into molehills, lose the anxiety and realise life really is good. Of course I have no idea what he's like in person, I'm only going by the way he presents on this channel. One of the best Korean cooking channels out there, no question.
Do one of these for other uses for doenjang (or however you spell the soybean paste)! I have a gigantic container as that was the only size sold (even bigger than my gochujang container) & I don't have doenjang jiggae often.
Yes pls@@AaronandClaire!! I find that doenjang paste has always expires much faster than gochujang paste and I’m clueless what else can I cook with it other than ssamjang & doenjang soup.
Having had experience with gochujang and pepper flakes before, I knew I would have to cut back severely in the amount of each in your Gochujang Jjigae recipes, so I used about 1/3 of each ingredient. I didn't have any zucchini in the house so substituted Asian eggplant, and it worked out beautifully. I didn't have fresh shiitake mushrooms either so I reconstituted 5 small dried ones. I am very happy to say that my result was delicious and I had used just a wee bit more pepper than I would have preferred. I will definitely make this because it was truly delicious. My only problem with it was that there wasn't enough liquid at the end to put over my rice. Next time I will use more. Thank you for your consistently delicious recipes that are very easy to follow.
So I didn’t know this when I first started cooking with gochujang, but there are heat levels on the tubs. I got a level three tub one time and made tteokbokki with it (the recipe also had red pepper flakes). I almost killed myself and my friend with how spicy it was. 😂 If you are buying gochujang for the first time and are slowly getting into spicy food, then make sure to look at the spice level which looks like a little meter on the bottom. It’s something that can get overlooked easily with all the brands, so make sure to look for it.
I have the opposite problem… I put gochujang on random stuff like hotdogs, crispy potatoes, peanut butter sandwiches, sautéed cabbage, grits, cheesy mashed potatoes. It’s just so delicious! Thanks for explaining some more conventional ways to use it. Love your videos!
I just marinated my chicken for Dakgalbi and stared at the gochujang, wondering what else I will be making with this paste. And then boom! this video pops up. Thanks so much Aaron !!
A&C, thank you so much for the marinating recipe: left the meat for 12 hours in the fridge to marinate and the barbeque was AMAZING! Honestly! It took me an entire month to find all the ingredients on Amazon (I live in a small city in Italy, no Korean shops for miles, hundreds of miles!) but I'm so glad, because the sauce ended up being so amazing that I'm planning to try it on anything even vaguely edible! A really huge thank you from a fellow supercurious cook!
Aaron, I just made the wings (with some extra chilli added in) and they are absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much! I'm so proud of how they turned out and I'm glad I carefully measured out the sauces so that it all came with a really balanced and delicious taste 💜💜
Aaron, how did you know I went to the Korean grocery store yesterday and got a container of Korean chili paste?! You are a green-onion-loving psychic!! Thanks for the recipes!
I really appreciate the way you approach the menu creation. It's start with one ingredient and what you can make with it. Very convenient to get rid of certain items in the kitchen!
I’ve learned so much from this channel! And Claire is so adorable. Also, I love when she speaks Korean. I find it to be a beautiful language! Many thanks, Aaron! New Gochujang recipes!
I made gochujang stew with all the ingredients Aaron had and added butternut squash and spinach. It was delicious. I think the butternut goes really well with gochujang.
I get a lot of notifications but Aaron and Claire never go unwatched. I refer to their recipes often and make them repeatedly, they know their stuff! Always delicious.
I love the term HAngry bird! That is perfect! I am so glad that you both still enjoy making these videos! They are inspiring me to do more in my kitchen!
None of the food in my kitchen ever goes to waste anymore with this fantastic channel. It’s even helping me learn my Korean listening skills! Thank you Aaron and Claire! ⭐️💙⭐️💙⭐️
Since we visited Korea before the pandemic hit my family has been craving the food we had during our trip. We’ve learned to love those sweet spicy food 🥘 🍲 Koreans enjoy so much. Gochujang is now a staple whenever we crave for some Korean food.
Every man need a Claire in his life… She is the best!! Watching these recipes being made takes the guesswork and intimidation out of using the chili paste and flakes. I love all of the dishes made.
I’m an European how really loves Korean cuisine, but i am often unsure about the ingredients in Asian stores, because I don’t unterstand all the wrighting on it - thank you so much for showing the bottles and brands, so I feel more secure buying the right things ❤❤❤
i'm argentinian, started using thin everytime I cook meat (not in asados, don't kill me ) and I'm in love, I'll try this but with the spices I can find here , somethings are really expensive, buuut keep this recipes coming because I'm now the designated cooker in all my friends groups and the want more Korean food in our gatherings and everything is thanks to you !! ♥
the way you edit your voice when u say “MSG” is cracking me up 🤣 not sure where Americans got the idea that MSG is bad, but they seem to only be selective about it when its asian food even tho MSG is in mayonnaise, processed potato chips, instant noodles packs, etc.!
there was a concerted effort by racist politicians in the 70s-80s to vilify ingredients associated with Asian cooking like MSG , as Chinese immigrants started opening restaurants around the country.
yeah, there's actually quite a bit of history behind that. you can read about it in-depth on other places, but basically Asian food has been long stigmatized in the West. there was a whole preoccupation with Asian food being really unhealthy "because MSG" despite the fact that many other foods in the US contain MSG. they called it "Chinese Restaurant Syndrome" as a catch-all for people who apparently experienced some kind of reaction to eating MSG. you can look up how it's basically been debunked as a myth, and even though there might be people out there with adverse reactions to eating MSG -- it's been entirely labeled as something exclusively happening with Asian food, which is entirely false. when my dad first moved to the US many years ago, he noticed how eating Asian food was looked down upon, so the whole MSG thing is honestly just one part of that.
Well I don't know about other people but I grew up having to be really careful about MSG because it causes migraines. The biggest culprit that I'm aware of is salad dressing from restaurants. I grew up in a really small town so we only had one Asian restaurant, it was Chinese and they didn't use MSG so we never, at least in my family, associated MSG with Asian cooking.
This came at a perfect time. I’ve been trying to figure out what to do with that paste. It’s chicken wings tonight! Claire, I just love how you wrapped up that lettuce and stuffed the whole thing in your mouth.😄
My husband makes his own BBQ. He made some recently and said the chili sauce he normally uses taste more like ketchup and not spicy. So he added gochujang to spicy it up. He said he is tossing the chili sauce lol
Pair of perfect harmonies family/partner. One cook, one cleaning. One happy cooking, one happy eating. One happy watching spouse eating deliciously, one happy tummy. And im happy watching
Hi Aaron (and Claire 🥰), I've been watching your videos since you guys started your TH-cam channel. I rarely eat meat/fish (though I enjoy your content a lot!) so I was wondering if you could make a video exclusively about vegetarian recipes? I'd love some more inspiration! Thanks for your hard work anyway x
I was lucky to have an awesome Korean mother-in-law to help me learn to cook. Even though my husband is a coconut and doesn't like Korean food, I still make everything she taught me. I love it so much. Your recipes help broaden my dinner and snack arsenal. TY!
I haven't watched your videos in a while but it makes me happy to see that Claire is still the official taste-tester! Also your shots have improved so much since I last watched I'm really excited for your next videos!
My partner and I made the jjigae tonight and it was one of the best things I've ever eaten. A great addition to our culinary repertoire! Thanks for sharing!
Love gochujang. This is great, I eat more Korean food than I ever thought I would. Made your bibimbap twice, Your ramyun so many times I can't count, I'm growing the peppers and perilla leaves in my back yard now. Thank you for your efforts to bring this wonderful food to everyone. And thanks for including Claire.
I am so glad I found this paste! It’s the absolute best of the best. I eat it with soups and with fruits. I especially loooooooove dipping apples in gochujang paste! The taste is out of this world!!!🎉❤
This video perfectly covers the three reasons I watch this channel: amazing recipes, Claire's absolute JOY, and being shamed about the stockpile of unused Asian grocery food in my house.
I am quite certain that if we looked at the sales numbers for H-Mart here in the states, Aaron's cooking would be a definite cause of a sizable portion of those sales :D ...
I used your gochujang stew recipe for lunch but made a number of substitutions since I didn't have many of the ingredients. Anyway, the result was heavenly, really out of this world, super yummy!! 😋👍Instead of gochujang, I used a mixture of sweet miso paste, sriracha sauce and cayenne pepper. Instead of zucchini, I used napa cabbage, some white radish, and a bit of bok choy. Instead of pork shoulder, I used 4 slices of bacon and a bit of chicken breast. Left out the green onions and mushrooms as I didn't have any. Anyway I'm glad I tried your recipe and adapted it using what I had on hand. Thank you so much for a most delicious lunch!!
I just love ❤️ your recipes! All of them. You have the best taste tester, ever. Claire always makes the dish just Devine and mouth watering. I envy her taste tester job. Lol.
'waiting for its expiration date at the back of the fridge' STOP ATTACKING ME! There's only so much kimchi bokkeumbap a person can eat :D Thanks for the inspiration!
OMG my mouth is wateringgggg. These dishes ALL look DIVINE. Definitely going to try them. Yummmmmy. Thank you for teaching me and sharing your recipes. ❤
I have an entire shelf of nothing but Korean ingredients. One of our first questions when we moved was, “where is the closest Asian market?” So we could restock. Tomorrow is Korean pancakes and I can make the sauce now 😁 Korean food is one of my favorite!
Hope you can go to Korea after the pandemic is over. There are so many wonderful dishes that never make it out of Korea. My favorite is goat stew, yumso junggul. I live in Sweden now, unfortunately the country's only Korean supermarket is tiny, and only open 20 hours a week. I guess you have found Maangchi's channel? Her recipes are dependablely good.
I love watching these 2. Funny and so informative. I grew up in Korea town in Chicago and loved going to my Korean friends house to eat. Now I can make it myself and as I eat delicious foods it brings back youthful memories. So glad I found this.
@@rookieisabelle8384 oh my! I think an outside mold got in somehow. Usually I’ve just seen kimchi get realllllly sour when it’s old. (I tried freezing it before… it wasn’t too bad actually! I just used it to cook with in that case like pancake or stew or something)
What a perfect couple! Aaron's narration is so cool! and Claire is so kawaii! I subscribed immediately. It used to take me nearly a year to finish a small tub of gochujang...I had no idea how important this is for making tasty Korean food. Since I learned a lot of Korean recipes I finished 1 tub in less than a month. Thanks for the recipes! I will give it a try!
I think people assume this is just for Korean food, and maybe it being fermented puts them off too. But I find it to be the most versatile chilli paste you can get, I use it in western, indian, tex-mex, all kinds of recipes. It's quite mild, has a smoky flavour, also cheap. I used to get Italian calabrian chilli paste as my all-round go-to, but this is better imo.
Just discovered this channel, I LOVE how Aaron always suggests to use ingredients laying around the house if you do not have the exact ingredient. Will incorporate some of these recipes into the weekly menu :)
Your recipes are really easy to make! I tried your different types of fried rice before. Im so excited to cook the chicken wings in this video. If you dont mind, I'd like to see different ways you can put soju in cooking too.
Thank you so much, Aaron and Claire, for sharing your love for Gochujang, food and cooking with us!! Its the first video by you I have seen so far and I am hooked!! Just rushed into the kitchen to see if there is enough Gochujang left over, thinking with which recipe of yours I wanna start first. You made me smile, laugh and hungry beside learning new recipes - 감사합니다!!! Aaron, your way of explaining the cooking is excellent and with such a great humor! Claire, you are one of the best test eater I have seen so far! Perfect description and making everybody keen on trying the dishes too!
All of these meals look so good Aaron!! 🔥 Funny enough I do currently have a tub of gochujang at the back of my fridge! I'm going to try cooking all of these, I will start with the chicken nibbles first! ❤
I made bok choy with onion and garlic and then I added gochujang paste with a little bit of water…since it was my first time using it…I poured it over rice and chicken and it was soo good! But now that you’ve showed me other ingredients to add to the paste I will definitely be preparing it this way from now on! Great video for us beginners :)
I knew this channel would grow rapidly. You launched it at the perfect time and Covid has contributed to the swift growth of so many of the newer TH-cam channels. It's brilliant. You deserve every bit of your success. xoxo
I rarely go to korean restaurant now. Aaron recipe make it easy to cook at home especially in this pandemic. Thank you so much Aaron. Your simple Bibimbap make my life easier.
Gochujang and doenjang don't expire. Some mothers will make a big jar of gochujang when a girl hits puberty for her to use when she gets married. My boss in Korea moved me into an "loaned" apartment that wasn't cleaned. I threw out all the gochujang in one of those big earthenware jars. The owner was mad, mad, mad. His mother had made it for him before she died.
Dude yes, you should try to see if you can find Korean bbq sauce at your local asian supermarket. Just slather that onto some meat, fry on a nonstick pan, and you have Korean bbq! So so so good!!! And about as easy as it gets for a delicious dinner
if youve tasted gokujang, you have a reason to buy gokujang. it may seem like blasphemy but i alway add some lightly toasted and bashed up sichuan peppercorn. add the mixture to literally anything. I just had it with cheddar cheese toasted sadwich, and yesterday with a bacon salad. amazing stuff. tommorow with kimchee broth / stew!
Thank you for all of the great ideas. I definitely want to try these new recipes. I have never bought this product because I never knew what to cook with it.
••whispers•• MSG 🤣 Aaron you ALWAYS make me laugh. 😁 Claire is so cute and funny too. I love her Korean & English commentary. Your channel is always amazing. Your recipes are always practical and most importantly delicious.
I bought a tube an i thought i was goingto forget about it but i have used it a lot. In pasta, chicken (fried and stir fried) and in dipping sauces. I really like the flavor. Thanks for the ideas

When Aaron said that statement about the tub of Gochujang paste hiding away at the back of the fridge, I felt that he was speaking to me directly. :D Can you also make a video on soy bean paste because I have a tub of that as well, currently giving company to my gochujang. :D
Lol same on the soy bean paste
Yes please do the soybean paste too
Yes, I have a tub of ssamjang lurking in my fridge too!
saaaaaaame lol
+one for the soybean paste please! I have just found somewhere I can buy the huuugggeee spring onions so feel ready to tackle anything! :D
Claire passionately explaining why it’s so good in a language I don’t understand but I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND!
Funny. I was thinking, "I really don't need a translation here." while watching.
Tap on the screen, then tap on the block with cc, it will bring up English subtitles.
The way you two make all your recipes/ingredients seem less intimidating is so great! Wish I had your encouragement when I started cooking Korean food. Sharing culture, family, friends, and food can bring the world together. You guys are fantastic, keep up the great teamwork!
Thank you for saying that😍😍🙏🙏
@@AaronandClaire You're so welcome! I really mean it.🤗
"you've been missing one of the biggest happiness in your life. But it's never too late, just run into your kitchen" Somehow these words sound so comforting 🥺❤️
He has that same sweet, uplifting chilled out vibe that Maangchi has. It's a lovely energy to absorb and be around, that sort of self-propelling, constructive, goofy and easy-going attitude. Great way to turn mountains into molehills, lose the anxiety and realise life really is good. Of course I have no idea what he's like in person, I'm only going by the way he presents on this channel. One of the best Korean cooking channels out there, no question.
Can Clair make some recipes for a day??? And Aaron be the taste tester for the day??
That’d be a fun change 😁
And close with Aaron washing the dishes 🥴
I would love that!!!!
@@gonzali710_05 A woman would haha
NO
Do one of these for other uses for doenjang (or however you spell the soybean paste)! I have a gigantic container as that was the only size sold (even bigger than my gochujang container) & I don't have doenjang jiggae often.
Challenge accepted!😍👍
@@AaronandClaire yay
Yes pls@@AaronandClaire!! I find that doenjang paste has always expires much faster than gochujang paste and I’m clueless what else can I cook with it other than ssamjang & doenjang soup.
Yes... I would like doenjang recipes too ❤️❤️
you can mix a half teaspoon in scrambled eggs it's pretty good
Having had experience with gochujang and pepper flakes before, I knew I would have to cut back severely in the amount of each in your Gochujang Jjigae recipes, so I used about 1/3 of each ingredient. I didn't have any zucchini in the house so substituted Asian eggplant, and it worked out beautifully. I didn't have fresh shiitake mushrooms either so I reconstituted 5 small dried ones. I am very happy to say that my result was delicious and I had used just a wee bit more pepper than I would have preferred. I will definitely make this because it was truly delicious. My only problem with it was that there wasn't enough liquid at the end to put over my rice. Next time I will use more. Thank you for your consistently delicious recipes that are very easy to follow.
So I didn’t know this when I first started cooking with gochujang, but there are heat levels on the tubs. I got a level three tub one time and made tteokbokki with it (the recipe also had red pepper flakes). I almost killed myself and my friend with how spicy it was. 😂 If you are buying gochujang for the first time and are slowly getting into spicy food, then make sure to look at the spice level which looks like a little meter on the bottom. It’s something that can get overlooked easily with all the brands, so make sure to look for it.
Thanks so much for the information
Good to know. I did not know there is a spicy level on the packaging tub thanks
Jajaja same~ i almost died when i follow a korean recipe for tteokboki, now i use less sauce 🤡🤙
@@Nv_Rc3 Truth! I learned that adding sugar cuts spicy, so if you ever add too much add sugar a little at a time until you aren’t dying haha. 😅
@@jennyjohnson7608 i know haha my mom told the same but I don't like too much sweet food and gochuchang it's a little sweet, enough for me 🤠
I have the opposite problem… I put gochujang on random stuff like hotdogs, crispy potatoes, peanut butter sandwiches, sautéed cabbage, grits, cheesy mashed potatoes. It’s just so delicious! Thanks for explaining some more conventional ways to use it. Love your videos!
Example please of a similar flavour x
I just marinated my chicken for Dakgalbi and stared at the gochujang, wondering what else I will be making with this paste. And then boom! this video pops up. Thanks so much Aaron !!

I've tried 3 of the recipes here and all of them are great!
Thank you!
the whispered "MSG" are the voices of our asian ancestors 🤣

I don't know what makes me hungrier: Watching Aaron cook the food, or watching Claire eat the food lol
I love Claire and her reactions to the food.
You guys are AWESOME!!! I have tried many of your recipes with fantastic results...can you show more vegan recipes with gochujang? 🙂
Boy, I put it on EVERYTHING. It's so good, it'll never go to waste over here.
Oh, perfect, I have one in my fridge, mostly use to cook chicken, but let's get creative!
OMG my mouth is wateringgggg. These dishes ALL look DIVINE. Definitely going to try them. Yummmmmy. Thank you for teaching me and sharing your recipes. ❤
I have an entire shelf of nothing but Korean ingredients. One of our first questions when we moved was, “where is the closest Asian market?” So we could restock. Tomorrow is Korean pancakes and I can make the sauce now 😁 Korean food is one of my favorite!
Hope you can go to Korea after the pandemic is over. There are so many wonderful dishes that never make it out of Korea. My favorite is goat stew, yumso junggul.
I live in Sweden now, unfortunately the country's only Korean supermarket is tiny, and only open 20 hours a week. I guess you have found Maangchi's channel? Her recipes are dependablely good.
I love watching these 2. Funny and so informative. I grew up in Korea town in Chicago and loved going to my Korean friends house to eat. Now I can make it myself and as I eat delicious foods it brings back youthful memories. So glad I found this.
Perfect timing :D also, ssamjang is nearing its use by date and I don't like it as a dip (too spicy 🔥) any ideas?:)
You will be surprised soon🤣😍
@@AaronandClaire oh dear, you really seem to have good timing :D I shall wait then 😅
Fermented foods don’t go bad. The date is a suggestion any way
@@wyliem I thought so too, until my kimchi started to get fluffy 😅
@@rookieisabelle8384 oh my! I think an outside mold got in somehow. Usually I’ve just seen kimchi get realllllly sour when it’s old. (I tried freezing it before… it wasn’t too bad actually! I just used it to cook with in that case like pancake or stew or something)
I love theway Claire is so enthusiastic about Aarons food
What a perfect couple! Aaron's narration is so cool! and Claire is so kawaii! I subscribed immediately. It used to take me nearly a year to finish a small tub of gochujang...I had no idea how important this is for making tasty Korean food. Since I learned a lot of Korean recipes I finished 1 tub in less than a month. Thanks for the recipes! I will give it a try!
Thank you! And welcome to our channel! 🥳
I think people assume this is just for Korean food, and maybe it being fermented puts them off too. But I find it to be the most versatile chilli paste you can get, I use it in western, indian, tex-mex, all kinds of recipes. It's quite mild, has a smoky flavour, also cheap. I used to get Italian calabrian chilli paste as my all-round go-to, but this is better imo.
I love all your recipes. This channel is amazing because everything is doable in your own kitchen. Please upload more than once a week. !!!!
Just discovered this channel, I LOVE how Aaron always suggests to use ingredients laying around the house if you do not have the exact ingredient. Will incorporate some of these recipes into the weekly menu :)
Your recipes are really easy to make! I tried your different types of fried rice before. Im so excited to cook the chicken wings in this video.
If you dont mind, I'd like to see different ways you can put soju in cooking too.
I'm very surprised that Claire didn't ask for Beer or Soju while eating the chicken wings. lol
is that a thing showing the community to drink alc to food? lmao
OMG I too was asking myself tht same question!! 😄😄
Yes, the perfect pair is missing
Everything by Aaron and Claire is always so tasty looking. I love your videos. Keep them coming.
“Today, I SHOJU four recipes…”
I’ll bet you thought you could slip that one past me. 😄
Off to the liquor store to buy some Soju.
Thank you so much, Aaron and Claire, for sharing your love for Gochujang, food and cooking with us!! Its the first video by you I have seen so far and I am hooked!! Just rushed into the kitchen to see if there is enough Gochujang left over, thinking with which recipe of yours I wanna start first. You made me smile, laugh and hungry beside learning new recipes - 감사합니다!!! Aaron, your way of explaining the cooking is excellent and with such a great humor! Claire, you are one of the best test eater I have seen so far! Perfect description and making everybody keen on trying the dishes too!
All of these meals look so good Aaron!! 🔥 Funny enough I do currently have a tub of gochujang at the back of my fridge! I'm going to try cooking all of these, I will start with the chicken nibbles first! ❤
I got a tub too...just expired and I almost bought a new tub and stopped myself coz I don't know what to cook with it.
I made bok choy with onion and garlic and then I added gochujang paste with a little bit of water…since it was my first time using it…I poured it over rice and chicken and it was soo good! But now that you’ve showed me other ingredients to add to the paste I will definitely be preparing it this way from now on! Great video for us beginners :)
My favorite simple happy place is… that standard marinade, as a dip for peeled sliced English cucumber. Seriously, try it!!! (KCOIC 1991-1993)
I just whipped-up some Gochujang dipping-sauce and tried it with left-over fried chicken. Beyond good!
I imagine Aaron's kitchen has 20 tablespoons for filming
😎😎😎😎😎😎
this is a really excellent program because the recipes are nice and simple, and inexpensive and also VERY WELL presented
I knew this channel would grow rapidly. You launched it at the perfect time and Covid has contributed to the swift growth of so many of the newer TH-cam channels. It's brilliant. You deserve every bit of your success. xoxo
My gochujang has never gone to waste, I eat some of it every day. This year I’m making my own. Great recipes.
Heyyyy...Its your southern friends...It's been a while but we are back...Can't wait to try it...
😍
I rarely go to korean restaurant now. Aaron recipe make it easy to cook at home especially in this pandemic. Thank you so much Aaron. Your simple Bibimbap make my life easier.
Haha the gochujang is waiting for it’s expiration date 😂 ain’t that the truth. Right now I have doenjang sitting at the back of my fridge tho lol
Gochujang and doenjang don't expire. Some mothers will make a big jar of gochujang when a girl hits puberty for her to use when she gets married. My boss in Korea moved me into an "loaned" apartment that wasn't cleaned. I threw out all the gochujang in one of those big earthenware jars. The owner was mad, mad, mad. His mother had made it for him before she died.
Your recipes and videos have been so helpful in helping me feel more comfortable cooking Korean food at home (one of my favorites), thank you so much!
You’re always welcome! I’m so glad it helped! 😊🙏🙏
I put Gochujang in nearly everything I eat 😁 I just love this stuff!
By the way: I would like to see more vegan food.
I love how she explained everything :)
Whaaaat??? Bibimbap is that easy to make?? :O Now I've got a reason to buy gochujang!
Also love that Claire explained the meaning behind Bibimbap 😍
Dude yes, you should try to see if you can find Korean bbq sauce at your local asian supermarket. Just slather that onto some meat, fry on a nonstick pan, and you have Korean bbq! So so so good!!! And about as easy as it gets for a delicious dinner
if youve tasted gokujang, you have a reason to buy gokujang. it may seem like blasphemy but i alway add some lightly toasted and bashed up sichuan peppercorn. add the mixture to literally anything. I just had it with cheddar cheese toasted sadwich, and yesterday with a bacon salad. amazing stuff. tommorow with kimchee broth / stew!
I bought Gochujan yesterday and came across your channel! will try the simple ways you showed! So much fun and flavor :)
why is your into so trueHAHAHAH thanks for the recipes!!
I'm watching you Natasha🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for all of the great ideas. I definitely want to try these new recipes. I have never bought this product because I never knew what to cook with it.
••whispers•• MSG 🤣
Aaron you ALWAYS make me laugh. 😁
Claire is so cute and funny too. I love her Korean & English commentary. Your channel is always amazing. Your recipes are always practical and most importantly delicious.
I bought a tube an i thought i was goingto forget about it but i have used it a lot. In pasta, chicken (fried and stir fried) and in dipping sauces. I really like the flavor. Thanks for the ideas
We need vegetarian / vegan recipes !!!!
Maybe substitute the meat with tofu/ tempeh/ seitan or chickpeas. That was what I was thinking.
@@Dee8Bee or even cauliflower bites instead for the chicken recipe! That would probably be really good!
I bet the gochujang bulgogi would work with soy curls
