Cooking tips

  • To remove the toxins and acrid taste of taro, you must parboil it in rice water with salt.
  • To preserve the unique aroma and nuttiness of perilla seeds, avoid adding aromatic vegetables like minced garlic or scallions.
  • If the liquid reduces too much, the dish becomes dry, so turn off the heat while there is still a little bit of sauce.
  • Adjust the amount of water according to your preferenceโ€”whether you want a soup or a braised dish.

Recommended for

  • Those who enjoy the savory depth of perilla seeds and the chewy, tender texture of taro.
  • Those seeking a mild, healthy dish to restore energy during seasonal changes.
  • Those who want to enjoy the dish in two styles: braised or soup.
