The modern Korean wedding feast or reception (kyeolhon piroyeon) can be a mix of traditional and western cultures. At a traditional wedding feast, guests would expect to find bulgogi (marinated barbecue beef strips), galbi (marinated short ribs), a variety of kimchi (pickled cabbage with a variety of spices, with other ingredients such as radishes, seafood). There will be many accompanying bowls of sauces for dipping. The meal is always accompanied with a vast quantity of white, sticky rice as well as gimbap, which is rice, egg, spinach, crab meat, pickled radish, and other ingredients rolled in seaweed and sliced into 1-inch rolls. Mandu, which are deep-fried or steamed dumplings filled with cabbage, carrot, meat, spinach, garlic, onion, chive, and clear noodle will also be offered along with a soup, which very frequently has a kimchi base, or even a rice cake soup (rice dumplings with chicken broth) or doenjang jigae, which is a fermented soybean paste soup. Also popular is a light broth boiled from dried anchovies and vegetable soups rendered from dried spinach, sliced radish or dried seaweed. Steamed rice cakes (tteok) sometimes embellished with aromatic mugwort leaves or dusted with toasted soy, barley, or millet flour are presented as a tasty ritual food. A large variety of fruits, such as Korean pears, and pastries will be offered for dessert afterwards. In South Korea, the major crop has historically been rice, and thus most Korean traditional alcoholic beverages are rice wines such as Yakju, Cheongju and Makgeolli. Rice wine is often used during the wedding ceremony. Soju, a clear, slightly sweet distilled spirit, is the most popular Korean liquor, it is made from sweet potato. There are also a number of traditional wines produced from fruits or flowers. These include wines made from maesil plums, chrysanthemums and peach blossoms.
