The Aromas of Kimchi Blend

This blend develops round, sweet, and slightly smoky aromas. Its spiciness comes from the delicious gochugaru pepper, a key ingredient in this Korean recipe.

Gochugaru Pepper, the Key Ingredient of Kimchi Blend

Gochugaru pepper originates from Korea. Belonging to the Capsicum annuum family, this pepper stands out with its bright red color. Its sweet and smoky notes, as well as its moderate spiciness, make it a major asset for Korean cuisine and of course for the traditional and unique kimchi!

Origins of Kimchi

Kimchi is an ancient Korean dish that traces its origins back to the Three Kingdoms of Korea period (37 BC – 668 AD). Resembling our sauerkraut, kimchi is composed of lacto-fermented and spicy vegetables (mainly cabbage). Initially, it was simply salted and fermented. With the introduction of gochugaru pepper to the Korean peninsula in the 17th century, kimchi evolved to include this pepper, becoming the spicy and flavorful dish we know today. A symbol of Korean culture, kimchi varies by region and season, reflecting the diversity and history of Korean cuisine.
