sweet rice with chestnuts and dates
Yakbap, room for a bit of everything
Which rice cake are you? It takes 30 seconds with your birthday.
What this tteok is like
You see wide, like the ocean, and mix a little of everything. Boxes make you restless. Hand you scattered ingredients and you will turn out a pretty decent bowl.
You think big. When one road is blocked, you find another one fast.
Add too many ingredients and you forget what you were making. Pick just one thing for today first.
You get along with people who take warm care of the small stuff. Even better if they listen to your big plans without laughing.
A trip to somewhere unfamiliar or near the water. Leaving a whole day unplanned also works.
About the real rice cake
Yakbap is glutinous rice steamed with honey, sesame oil, and soy sauce, then mixed with chestnuts, jujubes, and pine nuts. It is eaten on Jeongwol Daeboreum, the first full moon of the lunar year. The "yak" in its name is said to point to the honey, once thought of as good-for-you food.
