Yaksik or yakbap is a sweet Korean dish made by steaming glutinous rice, and mixing with chestnuts, jujubes, and pine nuts. It is seasoned with honey or brown sugar, sesame oil, soy sauce, and sometimes cinnamon. It is traditionally eaten on Jeongwol Daeboreum, a Korean holiday which falls on every January 15 in the lunar calendar, but also for weddings and hwangap festivities.
