Here's another recipe
Yield 3-4 servings
Main Ingredients
  1. ⅔ cup short grain rice (sushi rice)
  2. ½ cup pine nuts
  3. 4½ cups water
  4. 1 tsp sugar
  5. ¾ tsp salt
  6. Some pine nuts for garnishing
Direction

  2. Prepare ½ cup of pine nuts. Remove the top part from each nut.
  3. After 2 hours, drain the water. You will get about 1 cup of soaked rice.
  4. Grind the drained rice with 1 cup of water in a blender until there are no chunks.
  5. Strain the rice mixture for soft and creamy porridge. Then add 3 cups of water into the pan.
  6. Grind ½ cup of pine nuts with ½ cup of water in a blender for about half a minute on high speed.
  7. Cook the rice mixture for about 10 to 15 minutes on medium. Keep stirring it with wooden spoon, or your porridge will get lumpy.

Changdeokgung Palace - 창덕궁

Introduction Changdeokgung Palace was the second royal villa built following the construction of Gyeokbukgung Palace in 1405. It was the principal palace for many of the Joseon kings and is the most well-preserved of the five remaining royal Joseon palace. The palace grounds are comprised of a public palace area, a royal family residence building, and the rear garden. Known as a place of rest for the kings, the rear garden boasts a gigantic tree that is over 300 years old, a small pond, and a pavilion. The palace gained in importance starting from the time of 9th king of Joseon, Seongjong, when a number of kings began using it as a place of residence. Unfortunately, the palace was burned down by angry citizens in 1592 when the royal family fled their abode during the Japanese Invasion of Korea. Thanks to Gwanghaegun, the palace was restored in 1611. Even today, it holds a number of cultural treasures such as Injeongjeon Hall, Daejojeon Hall, Seonjeongjeon Hall, and Nakseonjae. Ch...
