Japanese カレトク
Chinese 长条年糕, 長條年糕
It is a white rice cake that is made long and thin by steaming non-sticky rice flour, and then pounding it. Garaetteok is chewy, and it tastes better the longer you pound it. It is mainly used as an ingredient for tteokguk, but if you eat it whole while it is hot, dipped in honey, or hardened and grilled on a griddle, you can enjoy a light and savory taste that is different from when it is used as a tteokguk ingredient.
Japanese 餅と餃子のスープ
Chinese 年糕饺子汤, 年糕餃子湯
It is a type of soup made with dumplings and garaetteok. The soup tastes deep and rich because it is boiled in beef broth. Most of the dumplings used in tteokmandutguk are stuffed with a mixture of vegetables and meat in the most basic form, and this filling enhances the flavor of the soup. The overall recipe is almost similar to tteokguk, so many families eat tteokmandutguk instead of tteokguk on Lunar New Year's Day.
