This heirloom is celebrated for its deep red color, smoky-sweet flavor, and balanced heat, making it the foundation of Korea’s most iconic dishes.The plants grow 24–36 inches tall, producing long, slightly curved pods, 4–6 inches in length, that ripen from green to deep, dark red. With moderate heat levels of 4,000–10,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), Korean Dark chilies are milder than cayenne but stronger than bell peppers—perfect for those who enjoy chili flavor with manageable heat.In Korean kitchens, this chili is the backbone of gochugaru (고추가루 – chili flakes) and gochujang (고추장 – chili paste), which are essential in making kimchi, stews, soups, stir-fries, and marinades. The dried peppers grind into a vibrant, deep red powder that imparts both heat and natural color to countless dishes.This heirloom matures in 85–100 days, producing consistently high yields throughout the season. The peppers dry beautifully, retaining their rich red hue and flavor, making them perfect for long-term storage, chili flakes, or homemade sauces. Compact and hardy, they thrive in garden beds, greenhouses, or containers.At Inherited Seeds, we proudly preserve cultural heirlooms like this Korean variety.
