About this dish

Deulkkong misut smoothie is a Korean grain-based drink made by blending wild soybean powder and roasted brown rice powder with milk, plain yogurt, and banana.

Mixing the dry powders into the liquid first prevents clumps from forming, and briefly freezing the banana beforehand creates a thick, shake-like consistency without any added thickeners. Wild soybean powder contributes a deep, nutty soybean flavor, and roasted brown rice powder adds a toasted, grainy undertone on the finish; the two powders have distinct characters that reinforce each other. Honey adjusts the sweetness, and a pinch of salt sharpens the grain flavors noticeably. Wild soybeans are higher in protein and isoflavones than common cultivated soybeans, making this smoothie substantial enough to serve as a full breakfast.

Instructions

Read the steps as a cooking flow: prep, heat, seasoning, doneness control, and finish.

6 steps

1

Finish

Slice 1 banana into bite-size pieces and spread them on a plate so they do not overlap.

Freeze for about 10 minutes, just until chilled and slightly firm, to help the smoothie become thick without extra thickeners.
2

Step

Pour 350 ml milk and 120 g plain yogurt into the blender first.

Starting with the liquids helps the blades catch smoothly and prevents dry powder from packing around the bottom before blending begins.
3

Step

Add 5 tablespoons wild soybean powder and 2 tablespoons roasted brown rice powder over the liquid.

Blend on low for about 10 seconds first, just until the powders are moistened and fewer dry lumps remain.
4

Season

Add the chilled banana, 1.5 tablespoons honey, 1 pinch salt, and 120 g ice.

Blend on high for 35 to 45 seconds, until the sound becomes even and no visible ice pieces remain.
5

Step

Open the lid and check the consistency.

If dry powder or banana pieces remain, blend in 5-second bursts until smooth.
6

Finish

Pour the smoothie into cold glasses right away and serve before the surface settles.

If it stands for more than a few minutes, stir once before drinking because the grain powders can sink slightly.

Practical Cooking Checks

The cues that matter most while cooking.

Key technique: Roasted brown rice and wild soybean powders combine for a toasty grain-forward smoothie.
Finish cue: Pour the smoothie into cold glasses right away and serve before the surface settles.
Avoid this: Slice 1 banana into bite-size pieces and spread them on a plate so they do not overlap.
Storage and reheating: Mixing the dry powders into the liquid first prevents clumps from forming, and briefly freezing the banana beforehand creates a thick, shake-like consistency without any added thickeners.
