My First Try at Ddeok Mandu Guk (Without the Mandu)
My mum went to Fairprice Xtra with my dad and bought some frozen Korean rice cakes without my knowing. Then, she started nagging my to try cooking it. You know, I'd never cook during semester time unless I'm tired of studying (and trying to escape from reality) or I'm really really free.
So today, since it's mid-sem break, I had the urge to try cooking Ddeok Mandu Guk.
Ddeok Mandu Guk, when translated into English, means "Rice Cake and Dumpling Soup". Mandu is dumpling, and since my mum has already prepared dinner, I'm gonna leave out the Mandu so we won't have too much food for dinner. On Lunar New Year's Day, (the FIRST day), Koreans have Ddeok Mandu Guk in the morning for some auspicious meaning. I didn't research much into it, but from what I heard, it is a clear or white-coloured soup with a special kind of Ddeok (rice cake) that is round [not the kind of spicy rice cake we see on dramas] and eating it means having money ('cos coins are round) and being white, it represents purity. Eating this dish also means wishing that as one gains a year in age, one becomes more mature. Isn't the one year older concept similar to us eating those "tang yuans" on Winter Solstice? I've attached some pictures of Ddeok Mandu Guk below:
So when I finished cooking my own version, I was so proud of it... I even thought it tasted awesome! =P How can anyone be as thick-skinned as I am? I always think that food cooked by myself tastes good. >.<
