Songpyeon

Songpyeon are steamed South Korean rice cakes consisting of a rice flour shell which is tinted and wrapped around various fillings such as mung bean or sesame powder as well as creamy red bean or chestnut paste. The cakes are formed into half-moon shapes and are usually steamed on a bed of pine needles, which impart flavor and keep the cakes separated.

Songpyeon are traditionally served during Chuseok festival, the annual celebration of a good harvest season.
