Our answer
Gochujang paste usually comes in a red resealable box and if you look on the side there should be a date printed in numerals - this is the expiry date for the paste. The paste should be used by this date.
As the paste is made from fermented ingredients the shelf life can be quite long. However, once you have opened the paste it needs to be kept in the fridge, tightly sealed. If you aren't using it very often then it may be a good idea to wrap the box tightly in some clingfilm (plastic wrap) to help prevent the paste from drying out.
