The rice cakes are so pretty! Now I want to know more about them. Are those tiny red balls red bean paste? Is that glutinous rice similar to what’s used for mochis? The Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival is coming up this Sunday and I wouldn’t mind having some of those rice-cakes in place of the snow-skin lotus paste mooncakes. We used slightly bigger wooden molds to make our mooncakes too.

They are in fact simply the Korean version of mochi: gluetenous sweet rice is ground into a very fine flour that is mixed with water, flavoring, and/or coloring to make a paste which can be filled with things like sweet red bean paste, honey, sesame and brown sugar . . . just about anything! These particular ones were filled with red bean (pat) before being pressed - but the traditional ones for Chuseok (the Korean mid-Autumn festival) are hand formed and then steamed on a bed of pine needles. Supposedly women who are good at making pretty seongpyeon will have pretty children. Fatman’s kids are gonna need plastic surgery . . .
