Besides traditional tteokbokki with rice cakes, you can use this sauce to make spicy rice cake stir-fry with vegetables, tteokbokki ramen by adding it to instant noodles, or even as a glaze for grilled chicken. Many customers at Korean grocery Spain also use it as a dipping sauce for fried foods.

This sauce works excellently with Korean rice cakes, fish cakes, boiled eggs, and cabbage. You can also add cheese, scallions, or sesame seeds for extra flavor. At Asian market Lyon, customers often combine it with instant ramen noodles or use it with vegetables like onions and carrots.
