Butternut squash porridge (hobakjuk)

[Mamabear1138]

Will this rice cake recipe work well and fry or boil ok for your mandu filling? I can't use wheat flour.

[LillithDTH]

whats the name of this song pls? sounds nice.

[Maangchi]

@LillithDTH It's 'Ghost Town' by The Specials Happy cooking!

[dianal0l]

Will the broth thicken by itself ?

[snsdlovermuahahaha]

can i used the dough for sticky rice cake to make tteobokki?

[Maangchi]

@snsdlovermuahahaha For rice cake for tteokbokki, short grain rice (known as sushi rice) is used. This rice cake balls are made with sweet rice flour (glutinous rice flour)

[jasmine4336]

do you really have to use butternut squash? is it possible to use just the regular squash? xD

[Maangchi]

@jasmine4336 kabocha will work well.

[jolili96]

ur pink hair is so cute..hahahahah...:D i love ur cooking video! :D

[Maangchi]

@jolili96 Thanks a lot! : )

[jykellylee]

can i use 단호박 instead of butternut squash???

[Maangchi]

@jykellylee yes, it sounds good to me!

[ketra666]

My 5 year old loves you're costumes ^_^

[ElnAlter]

i tried this at a korean place before, it is amazing!

[bulakday123]

i like the rice ball thing .. its fun to eat ! we usually use it but in a different dish though.. called " Binignit " .. hehe

[qpwoeiru83]

LOL! I love your glasses at the end! you are so funny!

[JosKiddin]

My mom uses regular pumpkin and it still tastes the same! Haha

[Augustail]

I've been looking this for long long time.. when I first saw it in Family Outing, I asked my mom to cook it.. I explain to her how the final look and she call me WEIRD..!! There is no way pumpkin turn into porridge.. NOW.. I can make it myself.. =D

thanks Maangchi..

[smcs]

this is so YUMMY. a church friend made this for dinner. I was only visiting at their house. they gave me a bowl of it and i loved it..

[Maangchi]

@smcs Now you can make it, cool!

[smcs]

@Maangchi definitely :D

[smcs]

@Maangchi I tried it. =) I dont have that kind of squash but I used a diff kind of squash. I don't have rice powder but I used rice - cooked it into porridge and blended it til puree. Mixed both. Voila! It's the same taste. =)

[YPSweet]

gaah~ I love this! My grandma made the best hobakjuk.

[MayDayWatson5]

I would be pretty happy if someone gave me soup when I was trick or treating. It beats getting an apple.Or a freakin toothbrush. That always made me so mad.

[ryanhigagf]

if u dont want the rice balls can u just use regular rice instead???

[DestinySky16]

Is glutinous rice flour the same?

[Maangchi]

@DestinySky16 yes it is.

[chefkoo]

If you make this and let it sit around, does the rice cake balls get soggy and/or the soup get too thick?

[sazji]

I got a friend to bring me mochi flour from the US so I could make this (I live in Turkey, no mochi here!). We made it tonight; didn't have any pine nuts but put on some toasted walnuts and cinnamon; everyone loved it!

[safiboomting]

HAHAH unnii ur hair is really funny

[watercolorcool]

Hi

I love your cookings. I miss Korean food..

I like to make this one but I can't go to Korean grocery store.

We don't live in Big City.

Does regular supermarket sell Sweet Rice flour? I didn't find one.

What should I buy? Any rice flour?

[SecretCuteGirl]

Where would you find Sweet Rice Powder? Pls answer :)

[Maangchi]

@SecretCuteGirl I buy it at a Korean grocery store.

[SecretCuteGirl]

@Maangchi So normally it would not be at a normal grocery store? because I live about 2 hrs from a Korean grocery store so I'm just hoping for a way :) If not I'd have to wait to have time to go down there x_x"

[nbo345]

This is a lot like the traditional pumpkin dish that we have, but instead of mushing the squash we cut it into random bite size ( a little bigger than the average bite size) then boil it and add sugar, but with no rice balls. ;) So I'm interested in trying this ^_^ thanks Maangchi!

[doulkmochi]

wow the way the dough is made and the way it's shaped is how my family makes this chinese new years dish , this will definitely be easy to make and delicious :)

[ludoludo80]

I'm vegetarian ,and a think that this recipe is amazing !!! thanks thanks <3

[Misssupershiny]

Hi maangchi, may i know what is butternut squash and where can i get it in Singapore? Can i use pumpkin instead of squash and is it the same method to make the korean red bean porridge too?

[sazji]

@Misssupershiny Any of the pumpkins/squash they use in SE Asia with a smooth orange inside are fine, like the ones the Thais use in curries sometimes. Like Maangchi said, the big orange ones (if you even have them there) aren't good, are fibrous and not so much for eating.

[Maangchi]

@sazji Thanks a lot for the answer!

[mindoro33]

hi maangchi, can i use cold water to make rice balls?

[Maangchi]

@mindoro33 no, if you use cold water, it will fall apart easily. Use hot water. Check the recipe and more tips and info in the recipe on my website if u want to make this. Good luck!

[houchi69]

@mindoro33 im Chinese, but we make it with cold water, and its fine. you just need to get the ratio of water and powder right.

[reniale11]

cute wig...

[bigalisme]

My boyfriend has such a good immune system, so he never gets sick... but WHEN he does, I'm making him this soup.

Thanks Maangchi. You're so cute XD

[Maangchi]

@bigalisme Thank you! Interesting! I should try this soup when I'm sick. : )

[RJXiao]

Can i use just one squash instead of 2 ... and how would that change for rice cake balls.... I really want to make it today lol... <3 YUMMY <3 with some Jjajangmyun

[Maangchi]

@RJXiao check the written recipe. I posted more detailed recipe, tips, and photos. See you there, : )

[RJXiao]

@Maangchi I did use the recipe from ur website and like the only thing tht didnt turn out right is the rice balls

[Maangchi]

@RJXiao don't give up making good rice cake balls. : ) Cheers!

[umiryuzaki90]

Can I used the rice cake to make for any rice cake? like can i use that for duk boki?

[Maangchi]

@umiryuzaki90 making rice cake balls is not that difficult. Please follow the directions tightly to make delcious hobakjuk.

[jonjonlokomaikai]

love the hair, love the music, love the recipies, love her personality, love the glasses

[IAmHarvestbunny]

ooo i had this last time at the korean grocery store restaurant ~ but they didn't have the little balls ~ maybe its because its a fast food place ~ it was good but too thick like eating glue ~ i wil make this at my house next time but with the little balls

[LadyGaGaMonsterFanXX]

안녕하세요!! do you happen to know what sweet rice powder is in korean??

[Maangchi]

@LadyGaGaMonsterFanXX It's "chapssal" in Korean. Check the recipe on my website. All info about this recipe is posted there.

[LadyGaGaMonsterFanXX]

@Maangchi thanks so much!!

[Maangchi]

@LadyGaGaMonsterFanXX It's "chapssal" in Korean. Check the recipe on my website. All info about this recipe is posted there.

[laurysocheerful]

HAHAHA you're so funny maangchi :D

[buddymay99]

Maangchi, I made this tonite with my daughter and we had so much fun. We were joking about who was making the big lazy rice ball. Your tradition is great. Thanks for sharing this recipe. I had a blast making this and it came out really good. We all enjoyed it.

[Maangchi]

@buddymay99 I'm very happy to hear about your successful hobakjuk making! Especially when you made the rice cake balls with your daughter, it must have been lots of fun! Thank you for your update!

[sreychnahmain]

youre amazing

[scifiwritir]

Wow!!! That looks sooo good! There's no way I can mess this up. Thanks.

[xiiaobrandon]

Hi Maangchi , in singapore we love to have sweet potato porridge and it taste really great ! (:

[Maangchi]

@xiiaobrandon sweet potato porridge sounds good! delicious!

[TheSuperHero94]

Hello Maangchi! ^^

For the whole of my 15 years of living in this world, i have never tasted pumpkin. Really. So i have the urge to make this porridge. But the thing is, i cant find any sweet rice flour in my country. Though i can find GLUTINOUS RICE FLOUR. If that can be used, how many cups of sugar should i put in?

[Maangchi]

glutinous rice flour is sweet rice flour! Let me know how your pumpkin porridge turns out.

[ihatemyscreenname123]

i live in mexicoand i havent seen a asian food market here so is it ok to use regular flower and cani add powdered sugar to it

[Maangchi]

yes, you can, but sweet rice flour (glutinous flour) is better, and also add powdered sugar, too. Good luck with making delicious hobakjuk and let me know how it turns out .

[MC97]

happy halloween i love your wig

[catsmew]

I have tapioca balls at home for bubble tea. Can I use tapioca instead of rice balls?

[lisam25]

Oh this looks good! Is it like a dessert ? I like your videos so far, I have only watched 3 but its nice and your too funny lol !

[Maangchi]

Yes, you can use this as dessert or snack, or breakfast. : ) Thank you very much, Welcome!

[XxlrainingsorrowlxX]

wow ur so diligent at making the rice balls xD i would never have the patience to do that

[cookie32323]

i watch that show too! family outing =)

[zmohdharith]

I saw the Family Outing members (you know the one with Yoo Jae Suk) making this on their show, I immediately wanted to try eating this. Too bad I can't find any of those Rice Cake flour to make the balls here in Malaysia. I think they called it 'little birds' eggs' in the show?

[keaidee]

try sweet rice flour or glutenous rice flour

[heshilove]

haha! me too! my grandma always drink da pumpkin juice but i neva ate it like dis before...on family outing it looked delicious too!

[mochidaifukutan]

@zmohdharith

can i know what episode is it??

the rice cake flour is actually the same with glutinous rice flour which means "tepung pulut" in Malay. I think you will easily find it here in Malaysia.

[suyon1004]

너무 귀여운 망치~!! I really enjoy your show!!! Keep it up!

[BlancType]

This looks so tasty! I am slowly starting to fall in love with korean food. I am going to try this recipe!

[PooJiraiya]

was that really your hair color? because it looks good

[Maangchi]

no, it's my wig! : ) Thank you!

[popup14]

cuteeee i <3 u maangchi!! u r so sweet and funny!! and btw the small rice cakes...you can buy them at any chinese market they come frozen! so you don't have to spend so much time making them yourself...but it probably tastes alot better if u make it hhahahah i loveeee all of your recipies!!!

[arased11]

[chocoxprincess]

[matcheman96]

[9aspengold5]

Amazing how the rice balls keep their shape. Wow!

[takuwan199]

I think you should keep your hair pink!! It's awesome!!

[pumbjaba]

HI Maangchi!

I was wondering if it is possible to not add sugar and make a more savoury porridge instead?

[Maangchi]

Yes, adding sugar is optional.

[fawz23]

Unni!!!!

I did it!!! I made these and it was AWESOME!!! But I used brown sugar instead.

I'm still eating it now..lolz!

I actually made it twice today. I happen to accidentally burnt the first badge and it was HORRIBLE!!!hahaha..So, being very determined, I went out and bought 2 whole butternut squash...

So yeah, it turned out DELICIOUS and I can't wait to try your other recipes.

Thanx unni!

[Maangchi]

wonderful! Thank you for your update!

[Sim155]

i am just squashing the butternut, it is so hard, but you cutted it like it is really from butter XD, what a superwoman you are :o

[Maangchi]

haha, Use the tip of the knife to go in first.

[jujubar]

Can you put pat (beans) in them, too? How much would you say would go in here? 1 cup?

[fawz23]

Awesome!!!!lolz!

Thanx Unni!!!

[fawz23]

Unni, would it taste better if I use brown sugar instead of normal white course sugar?

[taemabom]

Hi Maangchi,hw r u?Thanks i learned cooking korean food...yummy!I just want to know how to make the majjang not sure if its majjang similar to ssamjang.Thanks

[blackmind981]

[rae1968]

Looks good I will have to make this one for my son.

[arkybarky]

[ghettoray1985]

너무 먹고싶어요 ㅠㅠ

[wubanger]

This looks very tasteful, I love pumpkin as an ingredient. Request: I have a nice bottle of seoljungmae gold, is there a special way to drink this? Could you please give us a demo?

[ltkman]

Awsome. I'll try that out sometime. love your hair lol!!

[babyhomer]

[gayeonx33]

Hello Maangchi.

My mom mad hobakjuk using that jack-o-lantern pumpkin and then a couple days later you posted this video. She made her rice cake big like eyeballs. lol I told my mom about this video and your way of making it because that was her first time.

Thanks for posting this video.

[wonderpikachu]

i just discovered your awesome channel:3

[wreckanchor]

Hey I have a Charecter on World Of Warcraft named Maanchi!! HAMMER!!

[Maangchi]

allo allo everybody, thanks for all your good compliments about my pink wig. : ) I should dye this wig to my hair color and keep wearing. hoho! What kind of coloring should I use? Maybe soy sauce? or black bean paste? lol, joke!

[GazeRock123]

I think the black bean paste will do. Soy sauce is too runny xP.

[taiheon]

Cool! I like you style of cooking as well as your pink hair.

[crazykoreancooking]

Ah you look so good with pink hair.

I dare you to die your hair pink ;)

Thanks for subscribing!

It's an honour!

[ChefTips]

That looks so good! I am going to try this for sure. You are awesome Maanchi!

P.S. I don't know what I like better, the glasses or the wig! =]

Cheers!

[azngel]

maangchi this is an awesome recipe!!! im trying to loose weight and butternut squash is very low in calories and sugar. i omit the rice balls and make this diet-friendly. thanks so much!

[Maangchi]

good idea! : )

[stillnerdy]

"I'm out of candy, have some soup!"

I would not refuse that offer! it would warm you up, sooo yummy!

thanks for the awesome recipe!

[Dalsuh]

Why do you call yourself Maangchi(hammer)? Awesome recipes, technique and execution. Did you attend culinary school?

[Maangchi]

It's the name of my character in an on line game.

[sonsejin]

What a cute wig!

Do you dry the seeds and eat them? I do. lol

I made a similar butternut dish one day, but I didn't put the rice balls. Maybe I'm too lazy??? ;) (I've only seen them in red bean porridge, patjuk. Could you show me how to make patjuk some day? Thanks.)

Happy Halloween!

[budinzamani]

Maangchi wrote's

"if my house were on fire,

I would take these balls first

and run out"

XD

haha

i know its hard for u to make the balls

so that why you said it is precious 4 u ;)

I love to see the way you present your cooking work! It's realy fun n enjoyable

[solacium]

you look so cute!!

hmm, the Union Square Farmer's Market is full of pumpkins and squash!! I'll think about making this recipe when it gets really cold!!

Oh, and I made your mandu! They were soooooooo good! :D Thank you so much for showing us your recipes!!!

[Maangchi]

I'm thinking of going to the Union Square Farmer's Market this Saturday. Say hello to me if you happen to see me. : )

[zukyvilla]

Maangchi your recepes are like you ......

really beautifuls..greetings from Vancouver BC I am your fan # 1

[pleasantlyplump3]

I love your cooking!

Thanks a lot!

[naomi928]

maangchi, you look really cute with your halloween look! heheheheheheh LOL

[saprater25]

My mom loves this porridge. I'm not really fond of it, but I think she'd enjoy having some made for her. Thanks for another fantastic recipe.

[polarbear4224]

Thanks to you Maangchi. Since i've seen your video, i only eat korean food! I even made a special trip to eat korean food!!! It's so good! Thanks for sharing your video. I've tried a few recipe of yours and it make my boyfiend so happy!!!!!

[s4lford]

hey...nice wig!!..pink!! aaah..u're so cool!!!!

[houchi69]

you can always freeze these rice balls for future use.

[houchi69]

can you make it with pumpkin?

[houchi69]

it would be great if you can get some children involve in making those rice balls, fun activity for Holloween :)

[houchi69]

to make the rice cakes, or rice balls, you can use cold water instead of boiling water.

i've done it before, and it's just fine with cold water.

[jppa22586]

You have the greatest songs on your videos!

[kpopismydrug]

thanks maangchi! my mom has always seen her korean friends eating this at her work and she always wanted to know how to make it so now i can make it for her. um cab u make it with the actually acorn squash? the green looking one that looks like a small pumpkin?

[Lukychrm42]

oh sorry, i'm an idiot. I thought they were two different things. maybe I was thinking of the frozen rice flour? oh well!

[Lukychrm42]

I'm making this right now!

Would you believe the supermarket in Korea doesn't carry sweet rice flour? Only glutinous. I had to get premade rice balls- what is convenience coming to?! I'm supposed to bring some into my Korean workplace tomorrow- hopefully they'll like it! Why do they want an American to make them Korean food? Hahaha.

Thanks Maangchi, you are the best!

[amvn]

Hehe you look so cute :) I love pumpkin, this looks very delicious and I have always wanted to taste Korean pumpkin porridge! Happy halloween :D

[umbradweller]

That looks good! I have a butternut squash, so maybe I will try making some hobakjuk.

Also, I have to agree with chefkoo, you can use most kinds of pumpkins for food. You can make pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, even pumpkin ice cream! And you can toast the seeds with some salt to make a nice snack.

[Maangchi]

oh, yeah? It sounds like you are not going to waste any part of pumpkin. : )

[fcycles]

That's why we need to buy many pumpkin... we can decorate or do so many food with it! :)

[kaerunohime]

Thank you so much for making all the wonderful videos! I'm a big fan of your work... I love cooking, eating and even thinking about many different kinds of food. :) Your work inspires me a lot so thank you very much. Korean food is wonderful, and this pumpkin porridge is one of my fovorite ones. I will make this soon!

[evenstephen85]

you are so ADORABLE!

i love the wig!

i love love love love love ALL your videos!!!

thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!

[bertintowncenter]

I loved Your New Video ! Happy Halloween ! I still have a lot of Kimchi in my fridge as I made a lot !! I have not made Jja Jang Myun this month and I will be making next week and now I want to make hobakjuk also !! Looks Very Tasty ! I will look for Your Potjuk recipe also !! Thanks for another Nice Cooking Video ! I love Jja Jang Myun !!!!!!!

[twinrainbow1]

Maangchi Unni!! I love your show so so much!!!!

[axuxaxux]

happy holloween!!

[chefkoo]

0:34 you can eat pumpkin. there's lots of great dishes you can make.

[Lukychrm42]

oh yeah, that's when we start making pumpkin pie! (among other dishes)... fresh pumpkin is way better than canned!

[bluejuiseritsma]

4:20 LOL!!!!

[Stuhletto]

Nice hair :).. thank you for posting hobakjuk! This is my favourite food and now i know how to make it just like my grandmother would! I'm making it for my mother tomorrow! She will be so surprised ^.^!!!!!!

[instantramen]

You should have put the Addams family theme in the beginning, it would've been real adorable, although you're already adorable enough!

I like the new default picture...its sassy. :]

[wolfydan121]

mmmmm, looks wonderful! ^_^ thanks for sharing it with us!

[jencjlinjencjlin]

Hi Maangchi, I recently found your video on youtube and became a fan of you. I've almost watched all of your videos and really enjoyed them. This dessert is one of my favorite Korean desserts and for a long time I always want to know how to make it.(I'm Taiwanese, not Korean.) Thank you so so much for your efforts in showing us how to cook Korean foods. Keep it up!

[heliophobe99]

Mmm, this reminds me of 팥죽....it looks good!

[Maangchi]

potjuk(팥죽: potjuk) is coming soon,too. : )

[kathybigfoot]

lil kim (female rapper who use to wear colorful wigs) cooks!

i love your videos and i appreciate your enthusiasm!

[DigitalOberon]

Great video, the soup looked scrumptious. Also, I really enjoyed the Halloween reggae music playing in the background. It was a nice touch.

Thank you for sharing the recipe, and I hope your holiday season is eventful and exciting. First Halloween, then Thanksgiving then Christmas; this is truly the best time of the entire year.

P.S. - Nice costume.:)

[fortune318]

hey manchi!! ur so adorable!!! lol

that soup looks soooo yummy!

[seungyoo86]

이모 저 호박 안 좋아해요 ㅠ.ㅠ

[musicalme22]

Wow, this looks really good. You should give this porridge out instead of candy for Halloween!

By the way, can you make more Korean desserts? I really enjoyed your dessert punch with persimmons recipe. Lol :P

[theplainest]

hi maangchi! i cant wait to make this..can you tell me what do you call the rice flour in korean?

[Wivanunu]

You're funny...and the soup looks yummy!

[joyjoyooO]

nice wig :) and i love this dish!

[Rourba]

I did forget about food, you look sexy. thanks nice video.

[archmage235]

Yummiiii~Im going to make that now for halloweens! And i'll give the little children some bowls of soup too^^ Haha!! BUT HAVE A HAPPY HALLOWEEN TOO, MAANGCHI!!!

[Korea4Me]

멋있다!

I really want to make Hobak-juk now!!^__^

[griffinhearts]

hi Maangchi, did you sieve the butternut squash after scrapping them out before boiling them with the rice balls? Thanks^^_^

[Maangchi]

no, I didn't. As you see in the video, put the cooked squash into the pot directly. Thank you!

[GazeRock123]

Maangchi if you really serve food to children for Halloween please tell me where you live! xD! I prefer tasty food over candy any day lol.

[simplyyazn]

oOo, I watched Crown J and Seo In Young make this for their baby on We Got Married.
