Tteokguk
Tteokguk is a traditional Korean dish eaten during the celebration of the Korean New Year. The dish consists of the broth/soup (''guk'') with thinly sliced rice cakes (''tteok - it can be called a kind of rice pasta''). It is tradition to eat ''tteokguk'' on New Year's Day because it is believed to grant the consumer good luck for the year and gain a year of age. It is usually garnished with thin julienned cooked eggs, marinated meat, and ''gim''.〔 (''Tteokguk'' ) at Doosan Encyclopedia〕
==History==
The origin of eating ''tteokguk'' on New Year's Day is unknown. However, ''tteokguk'' is mentioned in the 19th century book of customs ''Dongguksesigi'' (동국세시기, 東國歲時記) as being made with beef or pheasant used as the main ingredient for the broth, and pepper added as seasoning.〔 (''Tteokguk'' ) at Nate Encyclopedia〕 The book also mentions the custom of having a bowl of ''tteokguk'' in the morning of New Year's Day to get a year older, and the custom of saying "How many bowls of ''tteokguk'' have you eaten?" to ask a person's age.〔 (''Tteokguk'' culture ) at Nate Encyclopedia〕
In the book ''The Customs of Joseon'' written in 1946 by historian Choe Nam-seon, the New Year custom of eating ''tteokguk'' is speculated as being originated from ancient times. The white ''tteok'' signifying purity and cleanliness would be eaten as a ritual to start off the New Year for good fortune.〔
In Korea, on Lunar New Year's Day, a family performs ancestral rites by serving tteokguk to their ancestors during a joint meal.〔(http://hansik.org/ )〕 Although ''tteokguk'' is traditionally a seasonal dish, it is now eaten at all times of the year.
