Gochujang Pancake (Jangtteok) is the best way to enjoy the wonderful flavor of Korean red chili paste. The addition of Gochujang seasons the pancake just right so you don't even need any sauce for this one! Ready in 15 minutes.

Gochujang Pancake or Jangtteok with Fresh Chives[/caption]
Gochujang pancake or Jangtteok is something that I had quite often at home when I was kid in Korea. Back then, I really didn't think that it was anything special because we had it at home often. But once I left Korea, I found that not many Korean restaurants serve them and not even many Koreans make it at home. I bet most of you have never heard of this dish. If you have, or if your family makes them, I would LOVE to hear how you make yours!
For the past 2 years, I have been making home made Gochujang around this time of the year. Because I made too much last year, I decided to skip making it this year. But honestly, I keep thinking every couple weeks that I should be making it... and then I realize how much I have still??!! I know.. I'm just crazy that way...😜 😜
I kept most of my last year's gochujang in my kimchi fridge so that they would ferment slowly and it has staying beautiful so far. And I take out a bottle at a time, leave it in my pantry and use them while it continues to ferment. Now because I still have so much gochujang, I wanted to make something where gochujang was really the star of the dish and then I remembered this one!!
