Learning How to Make Songpyun- Rice Cake

Here I am learning how to make songpyun. It's more difficult then one might guess. This group of people are kind enough to invite foreigners to learn more about their culture. I greatly thank the http://busanbuddhism.org/ for their kindness in providing these free events.

It doesn't take a songpyun pro to figure out this lil' fella went wrong.


We're so excited to bake our songpyun! Photograph compliments of Denis Desjardins.


Traditional Korean oven.


All of us patiently wait in our aprons for the songpyun.

Finished & ready to eat!

This was a beautiful temple due to it's location on the ocean.
