Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Can’t take the heat? Look for mild kimchi. It’s not quite as pretty as the spicy, red version, but it still delivers tart, umami flavors and crunch.
  • tip 2
    Gochujang paste is a spicy, fermented Korean condiment made from chiles, rice and soybeans that gives this recipe a nice depth and kick.
