[Kosrak] Organic Korean Gochujang (500g)


Finding truly organic gochujang is surprisingly difficult—even in Korea. That's why we're proud to offer gochujang from Kosrak, a renowned traditional jang maker dedicated to producing certified organic fermented foods.

Unlike many commercial brands, every ingredient in Kosrak's gochujang is certified organic. Read the fulll ingredient list for yourself:

Organic Korean red chili pepper powder (28%), organic Korean glutinous rice (16%), organic Korean wheat (16%), organic Korean malt syrup (12%), organic Korean rice syrup (11%), natural Korean sea salt (10%), and organic Korean meju (fermented soybean) powder (7%).

From the Korean-grown chili peppers to the meju, every ingredient is carefully selected to create a cleaner, more authentic gochujang for those who value exceptional ingredients.

The flavor is just as impressive as the ingredient list. Each batch is traditionally fermented for one full year in Korean onggi (jangdok) earthenware jars. Their naturally breathable clay allows a gentle exchange of air and moisture, creating the ideal environment for beneficial microorganisms to slowly mature the paste. This patient fermentation develops a rich umami depth, balanced sweetness, gentle heat, and a smooth, rounded finish that simply can't be replicated through rapid industrial fermentation.

Whether you're making a simple bowl of bibimbap, marinating Korean BBQ, stirring it into soups and stews, or adding depth to your favorite recipes, just one spoonful delivers authentic Korean flavor.

About the Brand

Founded in 2009, Kosrak has dedicated itself to preserving the traditions of Korean fermentation while embracing the highest standards of organic agriculture. Every sauce and paste they produce—from soy sauce and doenjang to gochujang—is made exclusively with certified organic Korean ingredients and fermented using traditional methods.

Their commitment extends beyond manufacturing. Kosrak also operates its own Korean restaurants, where the same traditionally fermented sauces are used in everyday cooking. By serving their own products to customers every day, they continually refine their recipes and ensure each batch meets the standards of authentic Korean cuisine.

Today, Kosrak cares for over 5,000 traditional onggi (jangdok) fermentation jars, where their sauces and pastes are slowly aged using generations-old techniques. It's a commitment to craftsmanship, patience, and organic ingredients that can be tasted in every spoonful.

This gochujang is naturally fermented for 1 year in breathable Jangdok (Korean earthenware jars).

The breathable clay allows a gentle exchange of air and moisture, creating ideal conditions for beneficial microorganisms to slowly ferment and mature the paste. This patient aging process develops a deeper umami flavor, balanced heat, and a smooth, rounded finish that cannot be replicated with rapid industrial fermentation.

About the Brand

At Kosrak, "Kosrak" means striving to be the very best.

The name Gosarak comes from a Korean word meaning "the finest" or "the very best." It reflects the belief that through unwavering dedication and constant effort, we can create the very best traditional Korean fermented foods.

Fermented foods are the foundation of Korean cuisine and an essential part of every Korean table. Since our founding in 2009, we have remained committed to producing authentic fermented foods the traditional way. 

To preserve these time-honored methods, we traveled across Korea in search of traditional breathing earthenware jars and skilled artisans. Today, we care for over 5,000 traditional fermentation jars across a 30,000-pyeong (approximately 99,000 m²) fermentation site and clean forest environment.

We believe that exceptional food begins with exceptional ingredients. That's why every key ingredient—including soybeans, Korean chili peppers, rice, and onions—is sourced as certified organic, without compromise.

They also operate an on-site Korean restaurant, where their fermented products are used in everyday cooking. 

Because they cook with these ingredients daily, they have a deep understanding of their flavor, performance, and consistency—ensuring exceptional quality control from production to the table.
