Kkultarae or Dragon's Beard is a hand pulled Korean Specialty. After stretching a nut filling is rolled inbetween and its best eaten frozen. I made this for our Korean pop up at The A in February. Dragon's Beard finds its origin in China. Our Indian Soan Papdi has a similar texture and method of making but with we add besan to it. Which I am assuming keeps it stable and not sticky in the Indian weather. Kkultarae's texture deceives you, when eaten frozen you initially find it crunchy but within seconds it starts melting in your mouth, what remains is this amazing flavour of honey with crunchiness of the nuts.
