I haven’t been able to get these since I was unable to travel back to Korea for a time. But fortunately, I can buy the ice cream version at my local Korean grocery store, which I also adore. I adore Asian pastries in general since they tend to be a lot less sweet than pastries from Western nations.
For those of you who have never tried it, it is a hot, fish-shaped bread with a red bean filling that is crispy on the outside. A crucian carp, which resembles a large goldfish, is referred to as a “bungeo” in Korean. The Korean word for bread is “ppang.” They are relatively inexpensive and are offered for sale in the streets all around Korea.
WHAT KIND OF FILLING COULD I USE?
Making a matcha green tea pudding or custard with some red bean paste is what this recipe calls for. similar to the matcha ice cream and red bean paste-filled ice cream fish seen at many Korean grocery stores. Ensure that the red bean paste you purchase is rough (pat); do not confuse it with the smoother red bean paste found in Asian grocery stores, which does not have any bean bits in it. In actuality, you could use any of them, but these fish pastries work best with the rough red bean paste’s texture.
