Jat Juk (Cream of Pine Nut Porridge) Ingredients

1/2 c Pine nuts 1/4 c Rice flour; dissolved in 1/2
1 c Water 1/4 ts Sugar
4 Dried jujubes (korean dates) 1/8 ts Salt
2 ts Honey

Instructions for Jat Juk (Cream of Pine Nut Porridge)

"The porridge, it is not quite a soup, is usually served on three different occasions. The first is for breakfast as a special treat, since pine nuts are expensive everywhere. The second is as a restorer of strength for persons who are ill or debilitated. The third occasion is as a snack anytime of day when special friends meet -- not the tea or coffee hour but pine-nut soup time." 1. Grind the pine nuts in a processor with 1/2 cup water for about 1/2 minute. Add the balance of the water and process the mixture until smooth. Pour through a metal strainer and rub the particles through, preferably with a wooden spoon. Discard the small amount of residue, which is mostly the "eyes" or buds of the pine nuts. 2. When the jujubes are ready, cut out and discard the pits. Cut the jujubes into thin slices and mix with the honey. Set aside. 3. Simmer the rice flour paste in a pan over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until the mixture just starts to bubble. This is the soup thickener. 4. Add the pine nut mixture, the sugar and salt to the rice flour and bring to a low boil for 2 minutes. The lightly thickened porridge, smooth and creamy, is now ready. Pour it into individual bowls and garnish with a teaspoon of the jujube and honey. Serve warm.
