"Hwangpomuk" (also called "norangmuk", 노랑묵) is a Korean food which is a yellow jelly made from mung beans. The yellow color comes from the addition of gardenia . This jelly is particularly associated with Jeolla cuisine, and is a noted staple food of Namwon and also Jeonju (both cities in the North Jeolla province), where it is a common ingredient of Jeonju-style "bibimbap".
