Kim Dae-seok's Pumpkin Beombeok

Recipe 🍳

Cooking tips 💡

• Blending the pumpkin removes its chewy texture; instead, boiling it thoroughly and mashing it by hand preserves a satisfying, rustic mouthfeel.
• When making the dough, avoid adding too much water at once—it will become sticky and clumpy. Add lukewarm water gradually and mix until the dough forms a dry, crumbly consistency.
• Stir the bottom of the pot occasionally with a spatula to prevent the glutinous rice or beans from sticking and burning.
