The spicy taste of many Korean foods largely comes down to one key ingredient: gochugaru (red chile flakes or red pepper powder). Gochugaru is made by drying Korean red chile peppers in the sun, de-seeding them and crushing them into flakes.
Gochugaru has a complex flavor profile with spicy, sweet, and slightly smoky tastes, and heat level may vary from mild to very hot in varieties made from Cheongyang chile peppers.
