This cake is made by powdering and steaming glutinous millet, then smashing it with a wooden hammer into a rice cake–like dough, filling it with red beans, then roasting the dough. It is a folk dish of Gyeonggi-do and is also known as chajotteok or jochatteok. Glutinous millet is a grain that is added to rice or made into cakes or liquor. As its name suggests, glutinous millet is a starchy grain, so it is quite easy to make a cake out of it. To prepare this dish, the glutinous millet is powdered and steamed in a rice cake frame, and then the steamed powder is smashed with a wooden hammer to make it into a rice cake-like dough. The dough is filled with red beans, and formed into balls, then roasted.
