Sweet flower pancakes ("hwajeon")

[loveholics2]

i remember my mom making these flower hwajeon when i lived in Korea!!

[tacotrucktaco]

why do you tilt the pot when you make the simple syrup? does that help the cooking process?

[BeeZee1992]

I love your cool T-shirts Maangchi!



[TheVenerated]

i cant find sweet rice flour, only rice flour - can i use glutenous rice flour?

[9HereticPrincess9]

Those look so beautiful and delicious!

[VaijayantiUSA]

Almost divine!

[DiegoJulianZapata]

@Maangchi! You should grow your own nasturtiums! They are SUPER EASY TO GROW! :D

[yuexkyo2]

too beautiful to be eaten.... i want seconds!

[Maangchi]

@yuexkyo2 : ) Be brave to eat it if you make it.

[2ne1lovergirl]

They look very beautiful! they look very good! <3

[sheathed011790]

i can't believe there are 8 people who disliked this video.

anyway, i wanna try this recipe but i don't know where i could get the flowers. sigh

[iynn512]

hi, anyone knows where to buy edible flowers in malaysia? i went to lotte mart ou, but i don't think they sell edible flowers...

[2hotinaz]

Your recipes all look beautiful. Koreans must believe the saying that we eat with our eyes first. I hope to try making these soon. They look to be one of the more simple recipes you've posted. I will also try some of the savoury dishes later as well, although I know I will have to adjust the heat level for myself and my family. We have only a small tolerance for very spicy dishes. However, I have successfully adjusted a LOT of Vietnamese dishes to our taste, so...YUM!

[73kittykat37]

@3:40 sounds like the flower screamed @_@

[truazndreamr]

I knew koreans had amazing deserts! thanks so much! you're a blessing! ^_^

[jonathanheah1]

@arturcodrean glutinous rice flour is sweet rice flour.

[munkymandee]

[pandaeyes11]

hello

this looks cool

where can you buy rose tea????/?

[Rinsuki]

@pandaeyes11 rosebuds can be bought at health food stores or online at places that sell herbs also. I make sure it is organic as some people like to use heavy pesticides on rose buds and petals. It can be made into rose tea.

[eiusung]

i remember i 've watch hyori make it on family outing

[sweetbarries]

maaangchi you make it look so easy but it so hard when i do it

[globalgourmand]

Very cute, thanks!



[goodbite]

That's really amazing. I love Korean food!

[EnjoyingLife100]

That looks so easy to make, but how long did you have to set aside the dough before cooking it?

[Maangchi]

check the written recipe and tips on my website please. I gotta read my own recipe to answer you. : )

[twentythree2life]

this is absolutely wonderful!! and you torture me when you eat it! but i love it!!

[858SHINE]

[ImCuckoo4CocoPuffs]

Can I substitute fruits like strawberry and kiwi instead of flowers? I can't find any edible flowers that's why :[

[Maangchi]

@ImCuckoo4CocoPuffs yes, you can. Why don't you use dried fruit such as dried apricot, rasins, ...

[sthprkbutterslovers]

jesus christ. i wish you were my new aunt.... that lived in the same house... then i can eat alll dayyy!!!

[MsRrrr77]

That is so pretty it would be framed and put up on a wall in my house. I just adore flowers!

[zacnessa4]

I like your spatula!!

[Bessie163]

Sweetie, Like ur blog so much.where did you find those pretty flowers. I'm looking for severial kroean recipes. I went to H-mart for kroean rice cakes. I didn't find here. One is very small with pinenuts. the Other one is empty in side and very crispy outside with rice cracker crumbs. they are so good and expensive. Do you know how to make it ?

[Maangchi]

@Bessie163 I bought the edible flowers at Farmer's market in New York. Check the recipe on my website. Photos, recipe, tips, ingredients are posted there.

I don't know what the food you mention is. You can leave your question on the forum under general discussion. Someone else may give you the answer.

Thank you very much for your interest in my recipes!

[udon890]

You can recommend this dessert for lovers in Valentines Day Feb 14.

[Maangchi]

@udon890 good idea. I should include it "Maangchi's pick" section. Thank you for your suggestion.

[udon890]

The flour will be hot because you add hot water, will the hot flour burn your fingers???

[Maangchi]

@udon890 that's why I knead the dough with the rice scoop first until it's not that hot.

[Chimeranimal]

Just watching your videos makes me hungry!

[Fullperson]

Vivaldi!!!!!

[nguyenduongtuongthuy]

Wow...I have never seen such a beautiful dish with flowers like that ! Simple and nice !

[skiklefied]

Is there any flavoring you could add to the syrup that could compliment the dish also?

[SPEARMlNT]

You're amazing. ^^ This looks delicious!

[soni408]

lol I eat flowers and drink flower tea never knew there were recipes for them so cool.

[minmi359]

i'm going to try this~

[Maangchi]

Let me know the result when you make this later! Thank you!

[phoeberose93]

If using plain rice flour, how much sugar would you recommend adding to this recipe? Thanks.

[chunderellalove]

so you don't have to wash the edible flowers?

[Maangchi]

They were very clean and the flower seller said I did not have to wash them.

[chunderellalove]

how do you know when the pancake is cooked?

[Maangchi]

It turns translucent when it's fully cooked.

[TheHwacha]

Looks yummy!

[vardahtanveer]

[tntownsend96]

[popup14]

[iblackboxit]

Im having the same problem, Im in the LA area but none of the farmer's markets carry it and I'm running out of places to look. I even went to a wedding cake shop to see if they woud know.

[Deseonfire]

You can grow them. Just look for seeds.

[caseycat04]

[budinzamani]

Oh

Look soooooooooooo yummy!

[carollyncheeyen]

[Maangchi]

I'm showing how to use dried rose tea instead of fresh flower in this video.

[myzuaher]

[123yaya000]

really really pretty

[xKoreanSoldierx]

i though Sweet flower pancakes was hwot duk O-O

[Maangchi]

uh uh hoddeok! : )

[mcphr3ak4]

Heyyy Maangchi! I need help with this recipe.. I went to a Korean market in Southern California && I only found Sweet Rice Flour... Also.. My flour was squishy instead of being like normal flour.

I hopeee you can help me!

[Maangchi]

Check the ingredient section on my website plz. You will have to get right ingredients. I posted photos of ingredients that I use there.

[mcphr3ak4]

Thanks a lot :] !

[meandjjforeva]

lol I really wish I could come over and cook and eat Korean food with you! It looks so so yummy!!!<3 I love your videos! Your so sweet for sharing them with us!<3

[Maangchi]

where are you living? Check my website, plz if you are living in New York. There will be a meetup in New York soon.

[3omgsh]

how do u know when the flour has enough water or not cause it might be dry... idk :]]

[Maangchi]

check the written recipe on my website. : )

[VALERWHEEEXD]

Maangchi! How long are you suppose to cook it?

[Maangchi]

Would you check the written recipe on my website? I think you cook each piece of hwajeon for 3-4 minutes over low heat.

[VALERWHEEEXD]

Yea I did. You never said how long to cook it for. Just put it on low heat and flip until done.

But thank you.

[Maangchi]

oh,thank you for letting me know about it.

[TemLo5425]

this looks so beautiful and sweet! with the rose tea, it must be spectacular! you are a very kind woman for sharing with us.

I wish you could come to my hwajeon party, too! lol

[bbAnna]

Maangchi, I would like to ask, can i use sweet potato flour instead of sweet rice flour?

[Maangchi]

I have never used sweet potato flour for hwajeon, but I'd like to encourage you to experiment on your own hwajeon and let us know the results!

[chocuqueen]

hey cant we just not put the flowers?

[Maangchi]

of course it will still be delicious without flowers, but the name of dish can't be hwajeon. Hwa means flowers

If you make this without flowers, cook it until it's golden brown and dip it in honey when you eat it. what would you call it? It's chapssal bookoomie in Korean. : )

[chocuqueen]

thankyou seriously i had no ideas to dip it with honey! thanks!

and about the sweet rice flour can you get these in chinese shops?

[Maangchi]

yes, I think so. Check the ingredient section on my website. I posted the photo of sweet rice flour that I use there.

[ichigonnopowder]

you should be able to, i got mines @ a chinese supermarket

[TheJoJoBeBe]

Dear chocu my <3,

I bought my sweet rice flour from the T&T supermarket. Did you tried to make this "hwajeon" pan cakes, yet? I did. My friends love those pan cakes that I made.

Cheers!

[cryith289]

Dear chocuqueen,

In response to your question 1 month ago. It's better to use the organic flour cause it's healthier. You can get it from the Korean stores.

Thank you to Maangchi for showing us the way to make "Hwajeon". It's really a good dessert to serve my guests.

Cheers! O_O

[Maangchi]

Cheers! : )

[chocuqueen]

can we juss use glutinous rice flour?

[Maangchi]

yes, glutinous rice flour is the same as sweet rice flour!

[chocuqueen]

thnx

[StephTwitsandTubes]

i love ur tutourials!

[Nfan22]
