Preparation
Sieved non-glutinous rice flour is mixed with hot makgeolli (rice wine), covered, and left to swell up in a warm room.[4] Risen dough is mixed again to draw out the air bubbles, covered, and let rise once more.[4] It is then steamed in jeungpyeon mold, with toppings such as pine nuts, black sesame, julienned jujubes, julienned rock tripe, chrysanthemum petals, and cockscomb petals.[4]
History
Jeungpyeon is called by various names such as gijeungtteog, gijitteog, sultteog, beong-geojitteog.[5]
