Description
Perilla frutescens var. crispa
Infamous wrapper leaf from the east. Also known as aojiso or perilla. Its a must in many dishes of Japanese or korean. Korean use them to wrap grilled meat with garlic, green chili, and their spicy sauce. Japanese use it for sushi, both for flavour or garnish.
Our cultivar is improved by having broader leaf and strong citrus taste. Thinner leaf with red tinge and reddish backleaf.
