TIPS AND TRICKS

Korean pepper paste or Gochujang is a fermented chile and bean paste. It is used flavor stews, soups and marinades, and as a condiment at the table. It is available in Asian markets and online specialty stores.

Three tablespoons sweet soy sauce (kecap manis) can be used in place of the soy sauce and honey. It is a thick dark sauce typically used in Indonesian and Chinese cooking. It can be found in Asian groceries.
