Hobak-tteok (호박떡) is a variety of siru-tteok (steamed rice cake) made by mixing fresh or dried pumpkin with glutinous or non-glutinous rice flour, then steaming the mixture in a siru (rice cake steamer).[2]

Preparation

Washed pumpkin, preferably Korean cheese pumpkin called cheongdung-hobak (청둥호박), is minced after having its seeds removed by scraping.[3] It is then mixed with rice flour and (optionally) sugar, and then sieved.[1] Hobak-goji (julienned and dried pumpkin pieces) may replace the minced fresh pumpkin, in which case the flour is sieved before the addition of pumpkin pieces.[3] Chestnuts, jujubes, red beans, and/or black beans may also be added to the sieved flour mixture.[3] Finally, it is steamed in siru (steamer).[1]
