Desserts and nibbles you must try out while you’re in Korea!
Previously, there was an introduction on food you must try in Korea. But, today, we will introduce five desserts and nibbles you must go for during you’re stay in Korea!
1. Tteokbokki: 떡볶이 (Hot and spicy rice cake)
Tteokbokki is one of Korea’s favourite snack dishes. It’s usually known for the hot and spiciness and Koreans love to have spicy food for relieving stress. But, for some who aren’t good with spicy food, the level of spiciness may come as pain. So lately, there are many additions to tteokbokki such as, gungjung(palace) tteokbokki, cheese tteokbokki and other non-spicy flavours. These new additions in flavour have been released in public and people love it, especially a lot of foreigners enjoy it very much.
2. Bingsu: 빙수(Shaved ice)
Shaved ice used to be thick and big, but now, ice is shaved into much fine state and is named as snowflakes. It is known for the sweet milk flavour, also soybean powder sprinkled on top is favoured by the public for its health benefits.
3. Gaeranbbang: 계란빵 (Egg bread)
This bread gets baked with a whole egg in it. It’s not too big in size and is most liked in cold winter days by not only Koreans, but foreigners too!
4. 4. Pajeon: 파전 (Green Onion Pancake)
The main ingredient used for pajeon is scallion or spring onion. It is also known as Korean pizza, and it is perfectly paired with Korean rice wine. There is increasing number of people wanting to try the combination.
5. Ggultarae: 꿀타래 (Drangon’s beard candy)
