For a quick, healthy banchan
[Sempio] Mom's Pickled Perilla Leaves
Sempio Mom’s Pickled Perilla Leaves comes in (real) handy when you need a healthy veggie banchan.
Yes, it comes in a can. But don’t let that scare you! It’s fresh perilla leaves that have been delicately pickled in Sempio’s renowned Soy Sauce, along with a hint of garlic and a touch of gochugaru. The reason we love this product is the taste of the soy-sauce marinade. It has the right balance of umami, garlic and spice. But most importantly, it's not overly salty. (Often times, store-bought perilla kimchi tastes way too salty!) Sempio nailed the pickling sauce with this product.
Buy a few and store it in your pantry. Whip one out during your next BBQ cookout or when you're traveling abroad. In fact, I used to pack a few for my extended business trips in Europe. Nothing like the taste of pickled perilla leaves to remind you of Korea!
Note: The Spicy version is not that spicy. It has just slightly more gochugaru added to the pickling sauce. If you're having trouble picking between the two, try the original flavor first.

How is this product made?
Here is a recipe on how to make pickled perilla leafs at home!
Note: In this video, the perilla leaf is much greener - as it hasn't aged in the soy sauce
The longer it does age, the darker the leaves turn (completely safe to eat!)
