Kimchi Powder: A Bold Korean Flavor in Convenient Form

Looking to bring the bold, tangy, and umami-rich flavor of Korean kimchi into your food products? Kimchi powder offers an innovative way to infuse that iconic taste into a wide range of applications — without the mess or moisture of traditional kimchi.

Whether you're a food manufacturer, spice company, or chef experimenting with global fusion cuisine, kimchi powder delivers maximum flavor in a shelf-stable, easy-to-use format.

What Is Kimchi Powder?

Kimchi powder is made by dehydrating traditional Korean kimchi — a fermented blend of napa cabbage, chili flakes, garlic, ginger, and other spices — and grinding it into a fine or coarse powder. This process preserves the depth of flavor while removing moisture, making it ideal for dry applications.

Unlike simply mixing chili with garlic powder, true kimchi powder captures the fermented tang, heat, and complex seasoning of authentic kimchi.

Why Use Kimchi Powder?

1. Concentrated Flavor
   A little goes a long way. Kimchi powder offers intense umami, heat, and sourness that mimics real fermented kimchi.

2. Long Shelf Life
   With no refrigeration needed, it’s ideal for packaged foods, seasoning blends, or instant meals.

3. Versatile in Application
   From snack seasoning to sauces, kimchi powder adapts to both dry and wet food systems.

4. Clean Label Ingredient
   Made from real kimchi, without artificial flavors or additives (depending on the supplier).
