Bungeoppang: Korea's Winter Delight

Bungeoppang, or a fish-shaped bun filled with sweetened red bean paste, is a popular Korean street snack in winter. Contrary to its name, which literally means “crucian carp bread,” bungeoppang has no fish in it. Despite being sold at fewer pojangmacha (tented food kiosks), the snack remains a favorite of both the old and new generations.
