The dough is prepared by sifting [wheat flour](/source/Wheat_flour) and kneading it with [sesame oil](/source/Sesame_oil), [honey](/source/Honey), [ginger](/source/Ginger) juice and clear, refined rice wine known as *[cheongju](/source/Cheongju_(wine))*.[3] The filling is usually made by mixing steamed, deseeded and minced [jujube](/source/Jujube), [cinnamon](/source/Cinnamomum_cassia) powder and honey.[3] Only a small amount of filling is put on a flattened piece of dough. The covering should be thick, to prevent the confectionery from bursting out after it is deep-fried.[2] After frying the dough, the dumpling is marinated in *[jocheong](/source/Jocheong)* (rice syrup).[2]
