"a block of white ddeok" yes, that's right. Koralex90 gave you a good tip.<br /> <a href="http://recipes.wikia.com/wiki/Baek_seol_gi" rel="nofollow">http://recipes.wikia.com/wiki/Baek_seol_gi</a><br /> Enjoy your stay in Korea! </p> http://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/what-do-you-do-with-a-block-of-ddeok#post-3389 Tue, 13 Jul 2010 12:29:34 +0000 koralex90 3389@http://www.maangchi.com/talk/ <p>Usually, if it's given in a plastic bag warm for a party and is white and fluffy(this is key) then you are supposed to just eat it as it is. It should be a tiny tad sweet and goes well with a cup of tea. If it's getting hard, you can warm it up - possibly steam it for a short while or just microwave after spraying alittle water on it and eat it with some tea. :) </p> http://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/what-do-you-do-with-a-block-of-ddeok#post-3388 Tue, 13 Jul 2010 08:42:11 +0000 Lizara 3388@http://www.maangchi.com/talk/ <p>A Korean coteacher gave me one for his son's hundred-day celebration. It's a block of white ddeok in a plastic bag, was warm when I got it, and otherwise has no distinguishing characteristics. What am I meant to do with this? Can I use it in some recipes, or is there some kind of sauce that goes with it, or...? </p>
