Bupyeon (부편) is a type of steamed tteok (rice cake) used in traditional Korean weddings.[1] It is a local specialty of Miryang, South Gyeongsang Province.[1]

Preparation

Glutinous rice flour is kneaded with boiling water and rolled into small round cakes with fillings made of toasted soybean powder, cinnamon powder, and honey.[2] The cakes are then coated with white gomul (dressing powder) made with geopi-pat (husked adzuki beans, often the black variety), garnished with thin strips of jujube or gotgam (dried persimmon), and steamed in siru (steamer).[2]
