Healthy snacks from Jeongseon Arirang Market that stimulate salivary glands

Jeongseon, Gangwon-do has a lot of rough but healthy food. Buckwheat pancakes, sorghum bukkumi, and surichwitteok, which have been enjoyed since ancient times, are still loved. It is characterized by the original taste of the raw material instead of fancy or strong seasoning. If you want to taste healthy Jeongseon, go to Jeongseon Arirang Market (last 2nd and 7th, Saturday). If you make a thin dough with buckwheat flour, fry it thinly, top it with stuffing mixed with kimchi, mustard leaf, and radish, and roll it up, buckwheat crackers with a light yet crunchy texture are completed. Put cabbage leaves on buckwheat dough to make buckwheat buchigi (the dialect of pancake), and millet bukkumi, put red bean paste in the glutinous rice dough, fold it in half and fry it in oil. Surichwitteok, which has a subtle scent of surichwi, and chewy potato rice cake are also popular. If you have fully tasted Jeongseon’s Jujeonburi, it’s time to feel the various charms of Arari Village, which reproduces traditional houses such as Gulpijip and Neowajip, Hwaam Cave with gold mines and limestone caves, and Jeongseon Rail Bike, where you can enjoy picturesque scenery along the railroad.
