8 servings
- 2 tbsp gochugaru (korean red pepper flakes)
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
Ingredient noteThough large amounts of added sugar are typically avoided on an anti-inflammatory diet, the ~1.7 g of added sugar per serving here is likely fine for many people. If you prefer to always avoid brown sugar, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
