 Making Korean Confectionery-Gangjeong

This month we will make "Gangjeong(강정)"- the seasonable Korean confectionery. It is a Korean traditional confectionery (hangwa) popular with women as a low calorie snack. A mixture of glutinous rice, honey and malt is boiled then a puffed cereal is mixed in. Other ingredients such as roasted peanut halves, pine nuts, raisins or sesame seeds may be added; one variety has black sesame seed instead of puffed cereal. It is a tasty, not too sweet snack.

Gangjeong is often served during important events such as weddings, ancestral rites, and lunar new year days (Seollal).

 It is a good chance to make and taste Korean traditional cookie.

Why don't you join in tasty Korea?
