Ingredients

  • ¼ cup gochujang paste
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil toasted
  • 2 tablespoon maple syrup (or brown rice syrup, honey, or sugar)
  • 1½ tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Place all the ingredients in a small bowl and mix to combine. Add a splash of water if the sauce is too thick, it should be pourable.
  2. Transfer the gochujang sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to two weeks, or use it immediately.

Notes

  • Different gochujang paste brands can have different intensity and spiciness levels. So always taste and adjust your bibimbap sauce to suit your heat tolerance. For bibimbap, remember that the sauce accompanies lots of rice, so it must be intense.
  • See ingredients for more details on ingredients and substitutes.
  • Serve your bibimbap sauce over perfect steamed Instant Pot short-grain rice or easy stovetop short-grain rice.
