Cooking tips 💡

• Adding a small amount of solid curry or curry powder helps tame any off-notes from the spiciness and imparts the deep, savory depth characteristic of market-style dishes.
• Use a generous amount of starch syrup to achieve the glossy, thick consistency and savory-sweet flavor of street-stall tteokbokki.
• To prevent the eomuk from becoming too soggy, frequently spoon the sauce over them as they simmer, coating them like a glaze.
