Instructions

  1. Sieve flour, salt and pepper. Then mix the sifted mixture with sesame oil and stir well without lumps. Mix rice wine and honey in a bowl and then knead with the flour mixture. A cookie dough-like mass must be created.
  2. Shape a round ball out of one tablespoon of dough and press it between your hands to make a taler. You can use a fork to press patterns into the dough, but these have to be quite deep so that they don`t disappear during further processing. In the middle there is a small hole for the pine nut.
  3. Mix the ingredients for the syrup in a saucepan and heat until everything is melted. Reduce until a syrup is formed and keep on temperature over low heat.
  4. Heat the oil in a saucepan to approx. 140 ° C. Don`t let it burn! Put the talers in the oil and deep-fry them until they have a nice brown color and are still soft on the inside. Remove from the oil, drain well and dip directly into the warm syrup for 30 seconds. Then take out and each e.g., place in white muffin cups.
  5. As long as the syrup is still liquid, place the small pine nut on the hole that you made for it beforehand. Let it cool down and give it to your loved ones or eat it yourself.
  6. Tips: Do not knead the dough for too long, otherwise it will become too crumbly and the small biscuit will fall apart during frying. If you have a traditional korean cookie mold you can use it for the pattern in the dough.
  7. Yakwa is traditionally made on Pepero Day. This is 11/11. and an unofficial holiday in South Korea. Comparable to our Valentine`s Day.
