Editors Review
How about some sweet dish or dessert from Korean cuisine? Maangchi is making a festive dish, Songpyeon or sweet balls with two types of filling, one with sesame seed powder and another with mung bean. Pine needles is a very interesting ingredient used to give a light flavor to the sweet balls. Although the process of this dish is long, Maangchi made sure her instructions are clear and understandable.Comments
