Is gochujang some kind of red pepper paste? Can you make it at home? Looks very good in the end, did you make your own kimchi as well?

It's a fermented chilli paste. You can make it but it takes ages. Kimchee I get here made locally at a good price so it saves storing vats of it under my bed.

ILOVE 떢볶이 It is my favourite food by far. BY FAR. Used to eat this like everyday coming home from school (in Korea), you know, 500 won for a cup of those, 1000 won for a dish of those, yeah.

It's good you can buy it locally, I don't think anything like this can be found near where I live. I'll search for gochujang though, using chilies and red pepper flakes didn't work that well ;(

Omg ddukbbokgi is soooooooooo delicious. Thanks for this. Now, I'm gonna see I can make one myself.

Lol chrono boost. That looks delicious... I might try cooking some of these dishes I see on the blogs. It'll probably be good for my college budget.

This is THE Korean street food. Like the hot dog stands in America...

Gochujang you usually have to find at a Korean grocery store. Sometimes you find it in the Chinese grocery stores, but the Chinese brands just aren't as good as real Soonchang (순창) like Taeyangcho (태양초) or other Korean brands. You might be able to order some online if you don't have a Korean grocer nearby, though.

The Chinese stores here carry that brand, and we have some Korean markets but they're EXPENSIVE.

Yeah, I'm sure the grocery stores in China are way better. Here in north america, or at least in Ontario, the Chinese grocery stores tend to be a lot more focused on Chinese groceries - you get the odd bits of Korean and Japanese stuff there, but mostly it's hardcore Chinese with decent Thai and Vietnamese items too. Same like the Korean shops - they have the best Korean groceries but they have crap for Chinese or other Asian things. What can I say, I'm fussy when it comes to cooking, haha. When I cook Má Là, I want the best huajiao, when I cook Thai I want nice fresh galangal, when I cook Korean I like good gochujang. I think I watched 食神 one too many times, haha.

SO GOOD. I guess there are different styles of it though. My mom leaves more broth in it. Adding oden, eggs and even noodles is a huge bonus.

떡복이 is pretty intriguing if you add a little ketchup to it

Agreed. I make a big pot and keep it in the fridge - then it's easy to just throw some in a pan, heat it up, and add this or that, whatever I feel like at the time. Like it with a bit of chopped beef too, or sometimes fish cake, more vegetable, whatever. Sometimes like to taste it plain too, just for a snack.

I'll pretend I didn't hear that, lol.
I don't like ketchup on anything, mind you - at least not the stuff like Heinz makes. My grandma makes this green stuff she calls "ketchup" but it's more like a pickle than a sugar sauce. That's good stuff. The squeezy red sweet stuff, though - you can keep that =)
