Ttok

Using a few high quality ingredients which we acquired from the markets, I was taught how to make Traditional Korean Rice cakes for Cheu sok! Using a special rice flour, you add water to make dough and let it rise slightly. Much like pizza dough, the rice flour dough must be carefully kneaded until it is ready to be used. Then you use your hands to roll it into shape, fill it with brown sugar or black beans and carefully fold over the top.

We also made green and purple Ttok by adding grapes and spinach to the dough.

After all the dough has been used the Ttok are brushed with water and sesame oil, then steamed on a bed of pine needles.
