I totally second this request. All I keep hearing in my head is Yoon Jong Shin singing, “Bing Soo ya! Pat Bing Soo ya! Saranghae! Saranghae!” and I think of this delicious treat ^__^

fridabag15Participantfridabag15ParticipantCheck out the recipe from this site (includes pictures and video to make sure you’re doing it right): http://aeriskitchen.com/2010/04/homemade-sticy-rice-cakes-for-tteokbokki-and-tteokguk/
fridabag15ParticipantI always go to “Kam Man Food” in East Hanover. I don’t know if you are closer to there or the Hmart in Ridgefield, but I’m sure either one is fine.
fridabag15ParticipantThis is from Aeriskitchen.com (another great website source for korean recipes:
“For steaming, filled almost half of a pan with water and boil it on high.
Meanwhile, combine 3 cups of rice flour and 1 tsp of salt.
Slowly add 1½ cups of water and stir it gently.
The rice flour will be crumbly.
Prepare a wet cheesecloth. Place the cheese cloth in a steamer.
Add the rice flour on top of the cheesecloth.
Once the water starts to boil, steam the rice flour for about 20 minutes on high.
In a bowl, add 1½ cups of cold water and 1 tsp of sesame oil. If you don’t like sesame oil, you can use normal cooking oil instead.
After 20 minutes, the rice flour will be cooked.
Wear gloves before placing plastic gloves over your hands to help prevent burning your hands. The dough will be hot!
Use a bread machine to knead the dough. I used the pizza dough setting for 25 minutes. It is very important to knead the dough thoroughly for the gluten to fully develop and become sticky, so I do not recommend taking any shortcuts with this step. =P
If you don’t have a bread machine, you can make the sticky rice cakes with 1½ cups of rice flour and 1½ cups of sweet rice flour instead of 3 cups of rice flour. Hand-knead the dough for at about 10 minutes. Since hand-kneading is not good enough to make a good texture for the sticky rice cakes, the sweet rice flour can be used to cheat a little. It will give the rice cakes extra gluten, but as I already mentioned, these results are not as good as using a bread machine.
When you handle the dough, put some of the oil and water on your hands and the board, so that the dough will not stick to things.Take some of the dough and round it. Roll it on a board with your hands until it becomes about half an inch in diameter.
Cut it into 2 inch pieces. This is for tteokbokki or tteokggochi.”
Here’s the website for the recipe (so you can watch the video and see how everything should look):

Good luck!!! I hope that helps.
fridabag15ParticipantYou can buy it without being 21. When I bought my cooking wine (I was 19 years old) I didn’t have a problem. In regards to the rice wine (or maybe you mean rice vinegar?) it’s the same thing. It’s all used for cooking so there should be absolutely no problem concerning your age.
