Mil-tteok is a Korean-style tteok made primarily from wheat flour rather than rice. This product is composed of 98.6% wheat flour, giving it an even chewier and bouncier texture than rice tteok. Think of it as similar in texture to Italian gnocchi or a very chewy pasta. It is the essential ingredient in Tteokbokki, a traditional Korean dish cooked in a sweet and spicy gochujang sauce. The 'L' size refers to a thicker, longer shape that absorbs sauce well and delivers a satisfying chew.

This product is suitable for vegetarians. It contains no meat or fish ingredients. However, it is not suitable for vegans. The ingredient list includes sweetened milk S (gammiyu S), a dairy-derived ingredient. Strict vegans should take note of this.

Storage: Keep frozen at -18°C or below. After opening, store any remaining product in an airtight container in the freezer and use as soon as possible. Thawing: Soak in cold water for 10–15 minutes before cooking, or thaw slowly overnight in the refrigerator. Microwave thawing is not recommended as it may cause the tteok to become hard. Cooking: Add the thawed tteok to a boiling sauce (gochujang, soy sauce, sugar, stock) and simmer over medium heat for 8–10 minutes, stirring until the sauce is fully absorbed. Do not refreeze once thawed.

Tteokbokki is a traditional Korean dish with hundreds of years of history, and today it is one of Korea's most iconic street foods. Chewy tteok is coated in a sweet and spicy sauce based on gochujang (Korean red pepper paste). Compared to European cuisine, it is similar in concept to Italian gnocchi meeting a tomato sauce — except here, wheat tteok meets gochujang sauce. The level of spiciness can be adjusted by the amount of gochujang used, so even those unaccustomed to spicy food can enjoy a milder version by reducing the sauce. In Korea, it is a national dish enjoyed everywhere from school canteen snack bars to upscale restaurants.
