HDF Authentic Korean Rice Cake Slices (Tteokguk-tteok) 907g · Frozen

Authentic Korean · Rice Cake for Tteokguk Soup

Tteokguk is the iconic Korean dish families gather to share on New Year's Day — and Tteokguk-tteok is its star ingredient. These oval-sliced rice cakes are made from garaetteok, a long cylindrical rice log crafted from finely milled rice flour. Much like Italian gnocchi or polenta, they represent the comforting, grain-based heart of Korean home cooking. Drop them into a simmering broth and they turn wonderfully chewy and tender, soaking up every drop of flavour in the bowl.

How Koreans Use It · Authentic Korean Recipes

Six of the most beloved Korean dishes made with Tteokguk-tteok — experience the warmth of authentic Korean home cooking.

Tteokguk
떡국
The most iconic Korean dish served on Lunar New Year's morning (Seollal), when families gather around the table together. Eating a bowl of Tteokguk is said to symbolise gaining a year of age — such is its cultural significance. Oval rice cake slices are simmered in a clear broth made from beef, dried anchovies, and kelp, then topped with egg garnish, roasted seaweed, and sliced spring onion. A gentle, comforting bowl that warms from the inside out.
Tteokbokki
떡볶이
Korea's most popular street food. While Tteokbokki traditionally uses cylindrical garaetteok, the oval slices of Tteokguk-tteok absorb the sauce even more readily. Fish cake, spring onion, and boiled eggs are simmered together in a sweet and spicy sauce of Gochujang, chilli flakes, sugar, and soy sauce — delivering that unforgettable after-school snack flavour loved across Korea.
Rabokki
라볶이
A staple of Korean snack restaurants (bunsikjip). Rabokki combines Tteokbokki and Ramyeon noodles in one pot — rice cake slices and instant noodles are cooked together in a spicy Gochujang broth. The chewy rice cakes and springy noodles complement each other perfectly in a single bowl, making this Korea's favourite "combo meal." A warming Korean comfort food, ideal for cold winter evenings.
Gungjung Tteokbokki
궁중떡볶이
The original Tteokbokki enjoyed in the Joseon royal court, long before the spicy red version appeared. Made without any chilli heat, it is a stir-fry of rice cake slices, beef, spinach, carrot, shiitake mushrooms, and onion in a soy sauce-based seasoning. Its elegant, Japchae-like flavour makes it a wonderful option for those who prefer mild food or are cooking for children — a refined and authentic Korean classic.
Tteok Mandu Guk
떡만둣국
A heartier variation of Tteokguk, made by adding Korean dumplings (Mandu) to the soup. In northern Korean regions such as Pyongyang and Gaeseong, it is traditional to serve Tteok Mandu Guk on New Year's Day instead of plain Tteokguk. The richly filled dumplings and chewy rice cakes come together in one satisfying bowl — a beloved Korean winter speciality.
Tteok Ramyeon
떡 라면
The simplest and most beloved everyday application in Korea. Just add a handful of Tteokguk-tteok to a pot of instant Ramyeon and an ordinary noodle dish becomes a far more satisfying and substantial meal. The chewy rice cakes soaking up the spicy broth are a treat in themselves. Known as the "five-minute happiness" recipe among Korean students and solo diners — the easiest way to start exploring Korean-style cooking.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is Tteokguk-tteok? Is it similar to any European ingredient?

Tteokguk-tteok is a traditional Korean rice cake (tteok) sliced into thin oval pieces. The main ingredient is rice, and the concept is comparable to Italian gnocchi or polenta — grain-based foods processed into a chewy, tender texture. Unlike wheat-flour pasta, however, these rice cakes have a distinctively soft yet springy bite. They are primarily used in Tteokguk (Korean rice cake soup), simmered in a clear beef broth, and are one of Korea's most iconic New Year's Day foods.

What do Tteokguk-tteok taste and feel like?

Tteokguk-tteok has a very mild, neutral flavour with a subtle hint of rice. When cooked, the outside becomes soft while the inside stays pleasantly chewy — a texture that is springier than Italian gnocchi but less sticky than Japanese mochi. Because they absorb the flavour of the broth or sauce they are cooked in, the surrounding liquid largely determines the overall taste of the dish. They are a gentle, approachable ingredient that first-time tasters tend to enjoy immediately.

This product is frozen — how should I store and cook it?

HDF Rice Tteokguk-tteok is a frozen product and should be kept in the freezer (−18 °C or below) until use. There are two cooking methods. The first is direct cooking: add the frozen rice cakes straight into boiling broth or water and cook for 7–10 minutes until they float to the surface. The second is thaw-then-cook: soak in cold water for 10–15 minutes to soften before cooking, which results in more even heating. Do not refreeze once thawed, and seal any unused portion tightly before returning to the freezer.

Is this product vegan or gluten-free?

The vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free status of this product has not been officially confirmed at this time. Some commercial Tteokguk-tteok products may contain wheat flour (gluten) in addition to rice. If you have coeliac disease or a wheat allergy, please check the ingredient list on the product label carefully before consuming. If allergen information is unclear, we recommend refraining from consumption or contacting the retailer for clarification. This product does not carry halal certification.

Can Tteokguk-tteok be used in dishes other than Tteokguk soup?

Yes, Tteokguk-tteok is versatile and works well in a variety of Korean dishes. Popular uses include: ① Tteokbokki — stir-fried in a spicy Gochujang sauce; the oval shape works perfectly. ② Tteok Mandu Guk — a soup combining rice cake slices and Korean dumplings (Mandu). ③ Stir-fry dishes — sautéed with vegetables in a soy-based sauce, similar to Japchae. Because the flavour is neutral, Tteokguk-tteok pairs well with a wide range of sauces and can also be added to European-style vegetable soups or broths for a creative twist.
