Choco ChalTteok Pie

초코 찰떡 파이, ChoCo ChalTteok Pai

by 2 Comments

There are different kinds of sticky rice cakes in Korean cuisine. One of them is a soft and chewy rice cake made with sweet rice flour and a sweet red bean paste filling. It is called ChapSsalTteok (A.K.A. ChalTteok or Mochi in Japanese). Inspired by that one, a Korean snack company started to make a chocolate covered chapssaltteok, which ended up being a big hit. Then, different companies came up with different ideas such as chocolate filling, peanut butter filling, etc. I loved the chocolate filling ones called choco chaltteok pie. So I decided to make it at home and made this delicious recipe for you. 😉 The sweet milk chocolate inside and out, along with the sweet chewy rice cakes, will make your mouth very happy. Try it someday.

Sea Mustard Jeon

When you start cooking foreign cuisine, such as Korean food, you probably experience unfamiliar ingredients. Every now and then, I get this kind of a comment, “Aeri, I have ‘xyz’ ingredient to make a certain Korean dish. But, I still have a lot of it leftover. What else I can make with ‘xyz’?” So here we are. Today, I have this delicious idea about how to use your extra “dried sea mustard.” Maybe you bought it to make Korean birthday soup (Miyeokguk). I will make jeon with it. This dish is even unique for some Koreans, but it is so easy to make and it is tasty. So, I want to spread this recipe as much as I can. 🙂

What kind of Summer vegetables do you think of? Maybe corn in America? I can think of potatoes. We get fresh potatoes in the Summer in Korea and it always brings back good childhood memories of summer for me because I’m a potato lover. Today, I will make a spicy, sweet, and savory potato side-dish for you. In less than 30 minutes, you can make this delicious side-dish and enjoy it. I thought Bryson and Logan cannot eat this because they cannot eat spicy food, but I was surprised that Bryson loved it. He even finished half of the serving size of this recipe today. @.@ I ate the other half. 🙂 … lol … Try it someday.

Peanut Butter Cream Bbang

Do you have any food or ingredient you don’t like to eat? In my case, one of them is peanut butter. lol Since so many people like peanut butter, I can see peanut butter related food everywhere around me. As a joke, my husband tells me I’m weird if I don’t like peanut butter. Anyway, I decided to make something with peanut butter to share with you. We have this peanut buttercream bread in Korean bakeries. But oops … I just started taste testing in my videos recently … what I should I do now? I don’t like peanut butter … should I try it? lol I do believe that there are people out there who don’t like peanut butter like me, or are unfortunately allergic to it. For those people, and me, I will also make a buttercream bread in the video. I’ll try it. How about that? hehe The result was very successful, so please try it someday.

You will learn how to make a delicious side-dish using the crunch, bitter flavor of crown daisy along with the soft, nutty flavor of tofu.
