Finding these ingredients in the US
- Chili PowderLook for 'gochugaru' (Korean chili flakes) at Korean or Asian markets. Crushed red pepper is sharper and hotter — use about half if substituting.
- WatercressWater dropwort, at Korean markets in season. Watercress comes closest in flavor and crunch.
- RadishKorean radish (mu) is at Korean markets; daikon from any Asian grocery is the closest everyday swap.
