Cooking tips
- Do not over-fry the perilla leaves—overcooking will darken their color and give them a burnt taste. Fry for exactly 50 seconds.
- The oil left after frying can be cooled slightly and mixed with chili powder to create versatile chili oil.
- Avoid boiling the sauce too long—once it starts to bubble, turn off the heat immediately to prevent thickening.
- Ensure the perilla leaves are completely dry after washing to prevent oil splatter during frying.
Recommended for
- Those looking for a crunchy, different alternative to regular pickled perilla.
- Those who want to make smart use of the rich, nutty oil left after frying perilla by turning it into chili oil.
