If you can’t get Korean Chilli Flakes (gochugaru) for kimchi, Hoyts chilli flakes will substitute – but be warned, Hoyts chilli flakes are very much hotter than Korean gochugaru. I’d probably only use half, one third or even one quarter the amount of Hoyts flakes.
I’ve never had a failure, but there are differences in taste and texture between batches. Which I reckon is quite OK.
I imagine so.
IIRC, I paid less than that for a 454 g packet at a Korean grocery store in Brisbane. After opening, I keep Gochugaru in the fridge. (I had two previous packs that I didn’t refrigerate and they went mouldy.)
Here’s a much cheaper packet – $5.40 for half a pound (227 g). This mob also has bigger sizes.
