Looking for a compact, flavorful pepper that shines in everything from stir-fries to pickles? Han Lim Ggwa Ri Put is a top-performing hybrid Korean green pepper known for its tender flesh, glossy skin, and gentle heat. Whether you’re growing for the kitchen, the market, or cultural cuisine, this variety delivers outstanding flavor and adaptability with a compact plant habit that works well in garden beds or containers.

This pepper is a staple in Korean home gardens and traditional cooking. Its name—“Ggwa Ri Put” (꽈리고추)—refers to its tender, wrinkled green pods, beloved for their juicy texture and pleasantly mild spice. It’s the go-to variety for dishes like stir-fried green peppers, soy-braised peppers (kkwarigochu jorim), and fermented side dishes.


🌿 Why Grow Han Lim Ggwa Ri Put Peppers?

Compact & Productive
Ideal for small garden spaces, raised beds, and containers. The plants stay neat and manageable while producing generous yields of uniform fruit.

Glossy, Wrinkled Pods
Signature Korean pepper shape—curved, slightly wrinkled, and deep green. These peppers are beautiful on the plant and even better in the pan.

Mild Heat & Rich Flavor
Just enough spice to add warmth without overwhelming a dish. A great pepper for families, spice-sensitive palates, or preserving subtle flavors in cooking.

Hybrid Vigor for Home & Market
Reliable performance, uniform growth, and disease resistance make this hybrid a favorite for both backyard growers and small farms.

Great for Korean Cuisine
Whether you’re making banchan, pickles, or stir-fries, this is the authentic green pepper used across Korean dishes.


🍴 Culinary Uses
Stir-fried Peppers (Ggwa Ri Bokkeum) – Sautéed with garlic, sesame oil, or soy sauce
Soy-Braised Side Dish (Jorim) – Slow-simmered in sweet soy with sesame and garlic
Quick Pickles – Perfect for refrigerator pickling or light brining
Fermented Peppers – Use in traditional gochu jangajji or spicy kimchi blends
Raw & Fresh – Mild and crunchy enough to enjoy straight from the plant

These peppers hold their shape and color well when cooked, making them ideal for plated dishes and side servings. The skin is thin and tender—no peeling required.
