It is a rice cake made with young leaves of surichwi (a kind of marsh plant). Since it grows a lot in Jeongseon, Gangwon State, it is a local food mainly eaten by Jeongseon citizens. Boil surichwi and grind it finely with rice soaked for more than 10 hours to make powder. Mix sugar water with this powder, put it in a sieve, and steam it in a steamer. Suri also means sure (wagon). Stamp it with a wagon wheel pattern and apply sesame oil. The chewy texture and subtle taste of surichwi are attractive. In the past, it was a rice cake made on Dano, but these days, it is made and eaten in all four seasons.
