Still missing Monkey King, I looked up a recipe online for spicy Korean chicken wings because I don't have a Korean cookbook. I went to three different grocery stores looking for gochujang and couldn't find any and got too tired and burned out to keep looking.

I could never find any in a store. I think I bought mine on Amazon. I wonder if it goes bad because it probably is by now. Oops.

I am sorry you couldn't make your wings. :(

You're in the Bay area, I think?

Grocery Outlet usually has it, weirdly. And any of the asian grocery stores along Story road, like Lion Market - including the Walmart on Story road, usually has it :D

I don't feel up to going to the Grocery Outlet now but I'll look there next time i want to do this.
Story road is in San Jose. I live in Oakland.

That's a shame! Gochujang is delicious so I'm not surprised it's hard to find.

I loooooooove Korean spicy wings, they may have been my favorite thing Monkey King did.

Hopefully you'll find the spices you need before the next craving hits - LOL.

this morning when i was looking for something else I found gochujang in Trader Joe but it was too late, I had already done the wings last night in a different way but I'll have to remember that next time. If Trader Joe doesn't discontinue the damn gochujang like they discontinued about a zillion other things.

One of the reasons I hate shopping Trader Joe's is they are always changing their products. You can't trust they'll have anything you want the next time you are there.
