Do grocery stores sell gochujang?
These days, many large supermarkets have gochujang. You’ll find it in a red, rectangular tub in the refrigerated section of your supermarket,
generally with other international foods; depending on how small your grocery store is, you might have to go to an Asian market.
Can you put gochujang in the fridge?
Once opened, gochujang should be stored in the refrigerator. Like miso, it has quite a long shelf life, as long as it hasn’t dried out or changed in color.
