Recipe
Cooking tips
- Rinsing Spam under running water cleanly removes its characteristic off-flavor and excess oil.
- Finely mincing and stir-frying the onion lets the onion juices infuse the sauce evenly and creates a thick texture that coats the ingredients.
- Adding 1 tbsp vinegar is a key tip: the sourness evaporates while maximizing the sauce's umami.
- Cooking over high heat prevents the rice cakes from absorbing the seasoning, so be sure to simmer slowly over medium heat for 5 minutes.
Recommended for
- Those who want to make tteokbokki with a deep broth flavor using only Spam, without Korean fish cake (eomuk).
- Those who want to recreate the seasoning and umami of delivery tteokbokki at home.
