Ingredients- 2 slices of bread
- 4 pieces of Injeolmi (Korean sticky rice cake)
- 1 handful of sliced almonds
- 1 Tbsp honey
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
If you have leftover Injeolmi, freeze it and then thaw it before use. It will regain its original soft and chewy texture, tasting just like freshly made!
Step 2
Place 2 slices of bread into a toaster or a lightly greased pan and toast until golden brown. A crispy exterior is key for the best texture.
Step 3
Lightly drizzle or spread 1 tablespoon of honey onto one slice of the toasted bread. Honey acts as a binder and adds a lovely sweetness. Then, arrange 4 pieces of the thawed Injeolmi on top. It’s best to cut the Injeolmi into manageable pieces, as very large pieces might melt and ooze out.
Step 4
Generously sprinkle a handful of sliced almonds over the Injeolmi. The almonds add a delightful nutty flavor and an extra crunch, enhancing the overall taste experience.
Step 5
Place the other slice of bread on top to complete the sandwich. Microwave for about 1 to 1 minute 30 seconds to warm the Injeolmi until it becomes soft and chewy. The exact time may vary depending on your microwave and the amount of Injeolmi used.
Step 6
Be careful! Overheating the Injeolmi can make it mushy or cause it to leak out. The goal is to warm it just enough so it’s soft and chewy, not runny. It’s recommended to heat in 30-second intervals and check its consistency.
Step 7
Once heated, cut the Injeolmi toast into your desired serving pieces. Serve immediately while warm to enjoy this incredibly simple yet delicious snack with its perfect balance of chewy, crispy, and nutty flavors. Enjoy!
