[Bangyudang] Toasted Perilla Oil 


Fish like tuna, salmon or mackerel are great sources for Omega-3 Fatty Acids.

But did you know that perilla seeds also have high amounts of Omega-3? In fact, perilla contains the highest amount of Omega-3 (ALA) - more than any other plants. One tablespoon of perilla oil has roughly the same amount of ALA found in 1 whole mackerel! That's why many Korean homecooks use perilla oil in their recipes.

Bangyudang is a famous, local grain roastery in Gwangju that has over 40 years of experience. They produce two signature perilla oils:

This is their toasted version. The perilla seeds are washed then roasted to just the right level. This roasting process produces a deep, nutty-perilla flavor that works beautifully with Korean banchans. It's the more commonly used perilla oil in traditional Korean recipes. 

The oil is available in 2 sizes: 210ml & 350ml.

Note: This is toasted perilla oil - which is what is typically used for Korean cooking. For untoasted, cold-pressed oil, click here.

Toasted Perilla Oil

Very good, but one of the flasks had a minor leak. Taste good, but minor leak.

Artisan Toasted Perilla Oil

This is a really great toasted perilla oil. Bangyudang, unlike sesame oil, is difficult to find in the US. This particular bottle has a nice nutty flavor though overall it is a bit expensive.

            Recipe Idea 1: Acorn Starch Jelly Salad

            1. Add select greens to a mixing bowl. Then cut acorn starch jelly into cubes and add it to a mixing bowl.

            2.  Make Spicy Marinade: Mix Gochugaru (2T), Soy Sauce (2T), Sugar (1.5T), Vinegar (1.5T), Minced Garlic (0.5T) and Perilla Oil (1T)

            3. Toss salad in Spicy Marinade. Sprinkle on dried laver flakes. Garnish with microgreens or alfalfa sprouts.

            Toasted vs. Untoasted Perilla Oil? 

            Toasted Perilla Oil: The perilla seeds are first toasted and then the oil is extracted. This toasting process creates an oil that has a much bolder, assertive flavor. However, some of the nutrition will be lost due to the heat. 

            Note: Toasted Perilla Oil is traditionally used for Korean recipes for its bold nutty flavor.

            Untoasted Perilla Oil: The perilla seeds are not toasted. This creates a lighter-tasting oil. Since the seeds are not exposed to heat, the nutrition in the seeds are not lost - higher amounts of Omega-3.

            Note: Cold-Pressed Perilla Oil has become more popular in the last decade due to more health-conscience buyers.
