Injeolmi are traditional South Korean steamed rice cakes. They are prepared by steaming and pounding rice into a pliable dough which is then rolled and generously dusted with roasted soybean powder. The varieties include ssuk injeolmi , which incorporates mugwort powder, or kkaeinjeolmi , which is dusted with black sesame. According to a legend, these cakes were invented by a commoner Yim who offered them to the king Injo after he fled Seoul due to a rebellion. To show his appreciation, the king named the dish after its inventor. Nowadays, injeolmi is mainly enjoyed on special occasions, and it is usually served sliced into bite-sized rectangular pieces.
