Yakgwa are Korean wheat cookies flavoured with sesame oil, ginger and honey, slowly fried and soaked in aromatic syrup. Their layered, tender texture comes from handling the dough minimally.
5 Schritte
Make a syrup from sugar, water, honey, ginger and cinnamon; cool completely.
Rub sesame oil into flour, then add honey and rice wine and fold into a dough without kneading.
Roll, fold and roll once more, then cut or stamp small cookies and pierce the centres.
Fry first at 110–120°C until expanded, then raise to 150°C until deep golden.
Transfer warm cookies directly into cool syrup, soak several hours and drain.
Drain well and serve with tea, topped with pine nuts or sesame seeds.
