Where do you get this other paste? Is it Korean, Chinese? What’s the name of it?
The Chinese pastes are not the same as the Korean ones and therefore are not interchangeable with them. Also, the saltiness of one paste may be much different than another, so be careful. Chinese pastes and sauces tend to be more salty.
But if you want to fusion-ize your recipes and it turns out tasty, go for it! (Then let us know.)
