Tteok
>> Monday, March 16, 2009
'Ttoek ' (pronounced as tok! like the sound of a knocking door) is a kind of cake, made of rice!.. basically it's rice cake.. but not those 'ketupat' or 'ko chong' kinna rice cake.. this one is really like a cake!.. but instead of using those cake flour, they use rice flour instead. It does not exactly taste like the normal cake, but it does look exactly like one. If you eat it.. u can tell it's not a 'normal' cake.. hehe...oh.. and u don't bake them.. there are many kinds of Ttoek.. the one that is closest to cake.. i think u steam them instead... the others u can either pan fry or pound them...
Koreans eat 'ttoek' on many occasions, birthday, anniversary, new year etc... and there are many Ttoek bakeries in korea and all of them look too nice to be eaten..
