Hello! Have you tried the Goguma (Korean Sweet Potato) Cake? There is a Korean bakery called "Shilla Bakery" here in the Washington DC region, and they sell Goguma cake and it is really scrumptious. I'm not sure how common Goguma Cake is in Korea, but if you can, I would greatly appreciate it if you can show us how to make this delicious cake!!! Thank you in advance.

Hello, my name is Silvia from Indonesia. I was very lucky to meet Maangchi at Gapshida Indonesia as soon as I followed her website. All the recipes here are awesome! I haven't tried them all, mostly because I don't have access to the ingredients and also because I'm quite occupied with my little business. I own a small business, selling cakes and cookies with my brand Eggknock. Feel free to visit me at <a href="http://www.eggknock.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.eggknock.blogspot.com</a> or check out my facebook at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/EggknockCookieandCake" rel="nofollow">https://www.facebook.com/EggknockCookieandCake</a>. I used to think Korean cooking needs a lot of work, but thanks (a bunch) to Maangchi-who have the simplest cooking method-now I eat Korean food almost everyday! As long as my husband doesn't nag, I'll keep practicing those recipes! LOL

Here is a link to a recipe from Aeri's Kitchen for homemade rice cakes for doek kuk. <a href="http://aeriskitchen.com/2010/04/homemade-sticy-rice-cakes-for-tteokbokki-and-tteokguk/" rel="nofollow">http://aeriskitchen.com/2010/04/homemade-sticy-rice-cakes-for-tteokbokki-and-tteokguk/</a> It doesn't look that complicated. I think I might try it myself since I don't have a Korean market close by. Good luck!

Here is a link to Aeri's Kitchen where she makes homemade rice cakes. <a href="http://aeriskitchen.com/2010/04/homemade-sticy-rice-cakes-for-tteokbokki-and-tteokguk/#more-4509" rel="nofollow">http://aeriskitchen.com/2010/04/homemade-sticy-rice-cakes-for-tteokbokki-and-tteokguk/#more-4509</a> The video has directions using a bread machine for kneading the dough. If you don't have a bread machine read down the page, and into the comments. Instructions are given there. This doesn't look that complicated. Think I will try it myself!

Hi, Maangchi. Two years ago, I tried one kind of Korean rice cake, but I haven't known its name until now. It is white, blended with whole black beans, and lightly sweet. The top surface is cover by a layer of grounded sweet bean, or something similar. I remember that layer's color is chocolate or brown. Could you tell me its name and how to do it? Thank you very much :)

I think there are some rice cakes you can make home. It just won't be the soup rice cake. Regular rice flour pretty much has no use for making rice cake. I think maangchi has recipe for rainbow rice cake. <a href="http://www.maangchi.com/recipe/mujigae-ddeok" rel="nofollow">http://www.maangchi.com/recipe/mujigae-ddeok</a>. It does sound involved so I don't know. There's songpyun people make for Korean Thanksgiving..... Injulmi which is sort of mochi rolled in soy bean powder.... If you are not Korean, these may be kind of meaningless but I am just listing things you could do at home fairly easily. You know what I think you can make? Mochi Ice cream!!!!!! I've seen several recipe making it and mochi can be easily made in the microwave. i think that's exciting.

Wow, nice video. Old school right there. There's a korean store here. I usually do just buy the rice cakes already made in their nice little packages all cut up and ready to serve lol. But I bought sweet and regular rice flour now I just want to find different uses for them and thought, hey... maybe making rice cake would be fun :P

nice video! That's how people used to make rice cake long long time ago( I am using this word in general term. There are many different kinds of rice cake, they are not all the same and they are not all made in a same way! No one makes rice cake this way anymore. This video is a fun novelty street demonstration of how it used to be made traditionally. You may still find this in a very hidden country side sometime but it's so rare you can assume that it's just not done this way. Koreans normally don't make rice cake at home. There are '"rice cakes" that are easy enough to make at home like songpyeon, or baeksulki but other than that it's all done at a mill or bought it from a rice cake store, or supermarket. When I was growing up my mom used to take rice to a mill in a neighborhood and get these plain rice cakes done and brought it home- I grew up in Seoul but these small mills are common in a neighborhood . Now I think many of these are disappearing and most are directly bought from a rice cake store already packaged or supermarket. So, LisaL, if you ask any Koreans how to make the soup rice cake home- I know what you are talking about. Some older people would tell you to take it to a mill, funny thing is that is considered homemade in many people's mind but most people would not understand why you would want to make it at home :) I don't know if you don't have access to Korean grocery store - I don't know if you can mail order this or not. But if you do, just get one from a store. I can't tell you whether it actually can be done at home or not because I've never seen or heard making this kind of particular rice cake home. Then again, I am Korean, I just don't see a need for it. Also the soup rice cake is probably more involved make it than regular rice cake because they are hard and cut. I assume it involves drying it out and cut thinly - so much work whether you do it home or a store.

Hi Lisa- Unfortunately Koreans don't make those plain rice cakes home. It's one of those things that is bought at a grocery store or rice cake store all the time. It involves special machine that pulls the rice cake out into a thick rope.

Any way to get a How to for making plain rice cakes? Not the ones w/ the sweet bean stuff in the middle. Just the plain ones that go in to soup and such. I have regular and sweet rice flour, just not sure how much of what I should use. Thinking it's hot water w/ the flour, and then you shape it quickly. But do you steam it after that, or do you boil it? Any help would be fantastic :)

From the website where you got the pic "(Seolgi ddeok and Ssamji ddeok, from the back)" So the one in the back is Seolgi ddeok the one in the front is Ssamji ddeok. This meathod was also used in the next pic. I do wish Sue would go back to posting.

I was looking at different kinds of rice cakes and came across one that really caught my eye. Unfortunately I only narrowed it down to two things it could possibly be. The color and way it's shaped is just very unique and stunning. I'm trying to figure out what it's name is and what the ingredients are, since it's pretty simple to make most tteok. Hopefully this picture shows up, but it's the one in front. Thanks, HeeYoun S.
