Kkultarae, a traditional Korean dessert

This delightful dessert is made by drawing a dough made of starch syrup or honey multiple times until the dough is made into a bundle of threads. The result is a soft, airy texture that’s then topped with almonds or sesame seeds, adding a delightful crunch to the experience.

The Kkultarae began making its name in the Insa-dong area of Seoul in the 1990s, and today, it can be found across famous tourist sites throughout Korea. However, it’s important to note that Kkultarae is a delicate treat – when stored in a warm place, it may melt, so it’s best to keep it frozen for storage.

Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or a curious foodie, Kkultarae is a must-try Korean delicacy that will leave you craving more. Indulge in this unique and delightful treat and experience the magic of its soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture for yourself.
