Baram tteok is a Korean dessert made from Azuki bean paste and rice. The “tteok”, pronounced ‘duk’, means rice cake. Baram rice cakes look like Japanese daifuku, their hollowed out centers filled with red bean paste but these brightly colored tidbits have a flavor all their own.

It is a traditional Korean food made from glutinous rice. It is similar to Songpyeon, injeormi, tteokbokki tteok. They have become a popular symbol of traditional Korean culture. They are often half-moon-shaped rice cakes that contain sweet red bean paste.

Variants containing sweet mung bean rather than Azuki bean are very common, particularly among the Korean communities of Los Angeles, California.
