Straight onto hot rice, the fish would turn lukewarm. Half the cho-gochujang, a sweet-sour chili sauce, is drizzled on for the first mix, and the rest goes in to taste.

Ssamjang Hwe Deopbap
This sashimi rice bowl uses ssamjang for a nuttier, deeper flavor profile. It is richer and more savory than the usual cho-gochujang style.
