Ingredients
tick what you already have - the rest goes on your shopping listHow to Make It
- 1
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 300g of glutinous rice flour, 50g of sugar, and 400ml of milk.
- 2
Whisk the ingredients until the batter is completely smooth and free of any large lumps.
- 3
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 3 minutes.
- 4
Remove carefully and stir the sticky mixture vigorously with a spatula for 1 minute to develop its chewiness.
- 5
Microwave for another 2 minutes. The dough is done when it is glossy and translucent throughout. If any opaque white patches remain, stir and microwave for 1 more minute. Let it rest covered for 5 minutes until it is cool enough to handle.
- 6
Dust a cutting board generously with cornstarch to prevent the dough from sticking during handling.
- 7
Divide the dough into 12 pieces and flatten each into a small round. Divide the 100g of sweet bean paste into 12 portions and place one in the center of each round as the filling.
- 8
Seal the edges tightly and roll the rice cakes in extra starch or toasted soybean powder for a clean finish.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Chapssaltteok?
Chapssaltteok is a Korean rice cake made from glutinous rice flour filled with sweet bean paste and often coated in toasted soybean powder. It is typically served as a sweet snack or dessert during celebrations and holidays.
Can I use regular rice flour instead of glutinous rice flour?
No, you must use glutinous (sweet) rice flour to achieve the signature chewy, elastic texture of chapssaltteok.
How do I prevent the dough from sticking to my hands while shaping it?
Dust your work surface and hands generously with toasted soybean flour (injeolmi powder) or cornstarch to manage the stickiness.
What is the best way to cook the dough to ensure it is fully set?
Steaming the dough for 20 minutes is the traditional method. In the microwave, heat for 3 minutes, stir vigorously, then heat for 2 more minutes. Add 1 more minute if any opaque white patches remain. The dough is fully set when it is glossy and translucent throughout.
How should I store leftover chapssaltteok?
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for one day; avoid the refrigerator, as it will cause the rice cake to harden and lose its texture.
