About Tteokbokki
Tteokbokki is a popular Korean street food made with chewy rice cakes (tteok) simmered in a spicy-sweet sauce typically made from gochujang (Korean chili paste), soy sauce, sugar, and garlic. Common additions include fish cakes, boiled eggs, vegetables like green onions, and sometimes noodles. Originating from royal cuisine, modern tteokbokki has transformed into a beloved comfort food in South Korea. While it’s flavorful and satisfying, nutritional aspects vary depending on preparation. Rice cakes are gluten-free and provide energy from carbohydrates, but they’re low in protein and fiber. The gochujang sauce contains capsaicin from chili peppers, which may offer antioxidant benefits, but can also be high in sodium and sugar. Pairing tteokbokki with vegetables or lean protein can help balance its nutritional profile. Moderation is key when enjoying this spicy, hearty dish as part of a healthy diet.
