Korean rice cakes, or "tteok," are traditional snacks and desserts made primarily from glutinous rice flour. A staple in Korean cuisine, they come in various shapes, sizes, and flavors to suit different occasions, from everyday snacks to ceremonial offerings. Common ingredients include rice, water, sweeteners like honey or sugar, and natural flavorings such as sesame seeds or red bean paste. Tteok can be steamed, pounded, or boiled, resulting in chewy textures and unique profiles. They are naturally gluten-free, low in fat, and provide energy through their carbohydrate content. However, some variations may be high in sugar or calorie-dense due to added fillings or toppings. Simple options like plain garaetteok or savory tteokbokki are healthier. Korean rice cakes embody rich cultural heritage and offer both wholesome and indulgent choices for every palate.
