Ingredients

  • 2 cups of glutinous rice flour
  • 1/2 cup of sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/2 cup of water
  • 1/2 cup of chopped nuts (optional)

  8. Remove from the heat and let them cool.
  9. Once cooled, dust the Tteok with a little bit of extra glutinous rice flour to prevent them from sticking together.
  10. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • It is important to knead the dough well to achieve a smooth and elastic texture.
