Keto Gochujang

Traditional Gochujang isn't terrible for Keto, but has more sugar/carbs than ideal. This version is pretty tasty and very low on carbohydrates.

Ingredients Directions

  • 100 g water
  • 100 g chile pepper flakes
  • 2 tbsp (30 g) soybean paste
  • 3 tbsp (45 g) fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp Kosher salt
  • 4 tbsp erythritol and/or allulose
  • 2 tbsp soju (or cooking wine)

  1. In a non-reactive mixing bowl, add water, soybean paste, fish sauce, and sweetener.
  2. Mix it well with a whisk.
  3. Add the chili pepper and mix everything well until there are no lumps.
  4. Add the salt and soju, mix well.
  5. At this point, you can check the taste and thickness of the Gochujang. Adjust ingredients to taste and thickness.
  6. Refrigerate the Gochujang in an airtight container.
