Gochujang Hummus is a bold and flavorful twist on classic hummus, blending the creamy richness of chickpeas with the deep, spicy-sweet heat of Korean gochujang. Try to make this a day ahead; the flavor develops the longer it sits. Use 1 tablespoon gochujang for a mild heat, or use 2 tablespoons if you like things a little spicier.
