FAQs
1. Can I use a different type of cheese?
Yes! Cheddar, mozzarella, or even a Korean cheese like mozzarella would work well. Experiment to find your favorite!
2. What if I don't have gochujang?
Gochujang provides the signature spicy-sweet flavor. You can substitute with sriracha or gochugaru (Korean chili flakes) and a touch of brown sugar, but the flavor will be different.
3. Can I make this ahead of time?
It's best served fresh, but you can assemble the casserole without the cheese until ready to bake. Add the cheese during the last 10-15 minutes of baking.
