These bite-sized crackers made of sticky rice and coated with honey are commonly featured in K-dramas. They regularly appear during scenes involving tea drinking, family gatherings, or romantic moments between the lead characters. The crunchy texture and sweet flavor of Honey Rice Crackers add a unique touch to these scenes, making them even more memorable.
Fun fact: Honey Rice Crackers have a deeper cultural significance in Korea. According to Korean folklore, they were initially created by an artisan in the Joseon Dynasty over 500 years ago. The artisan was on a mission to make a rice cake that would not spoil during long journeys. He came up with the idea of coating sticky rice with honey, which acted as a natural preservative.
