Taiyaki (bungeoppang) using tapioca berries

It is right to say that bungeoppang is a street food that represents Korea. Bungeoppang, which has been popular since childhood, has evolved into new forms, and the basic bungeoppang is still loved by many people. If bungeo-ppang with red beans is the original, now there are bungeo-ppang with custard cream, pizza, and even kimchi.

Here at Anyang Central Market, the bungeoppang is making dough using tapioca berries and adding red beans and custard cream to make bungeoppang a little smaller than regular one. It’s small, so it’s easy to eat. While regular-sized bungeo-ppang has a chewy taste, this mini-bungeoppang has the simplicity of a bite.

It is said to be made of starch from tapioca beans, which are said to be the powder from the roots of Casava, a tropical crop. So it is said that it is milder and more delicious than regular flour bungeoppang.
