[Bangyudang] Toasted Perilla Oil (P3 · Medium Roast)


Fish like tuna, salmon, and mackerel are well-known sources of Omega-3 fatty acids. But perilla seeds contain more ALA — the plant form of Omega-3 — than any other plant source. One tablespoon of perilla oil has roughly the same ALA content as a whole mackerel.

Bangyudang is an artisan grain roastery in Gwangju, Korea, with over 50 years of experience. This is their medium-roasted perilla oil.

The seeds are roasted at a higher temperature than the lightly-roasted P1, developing a deep, full-bodied aroma before being pressed into oil.

The result is a deeply aromatic perilla oil — bold, nutty, with a richness that lingers.

This is the perilla oil Korean home cooks reach for every day. The bold, nutty aroma stands up well to seasoning and heat, making it the natural choice for bibimbap, seasoned vegetable dishes (namul), and Korean main dishes.

A finishing drizzle over a bowl of noodles is enough to transform the dish.

The tradeoff versus P1 (lightly-roasted): the higher roasting temperature means some of the natural Omega-3 content is lost. If nutrition is your primary concern, P1 is the better choice. But if you want the full, authentic perilla oil experience — this is it.

Available in 200ml and 320ml.

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.

Perilla Oil (P1) - Light Roast

Roast Level: Low

Aroma: Fresh · Crisp

Recommended for: Raw dishes · Mild-heat cooking

The P1 perilla oil is lighter and cleaner. It has a softer nutty aroma, so it works well in dishes where you want a more delicate perilla flavor, like dressings or lightly seasoned foods.

vs.

Perilla Oil (P3) - Medium Roast

Roast Level: Medium

Aroma: Deep · Rich

Recommended for: Banchans (muchim) · Mixed Dishes (Bibim)

This P3 perilla oil is deeper and bolder. It has a thicker, smokier nutty aroma, so it is better for stronger dishes where you want the perilla oil flavor to stand out.

Why store this in a cool pantry, not the fridge?

The four enemies of oil quality:

Light · Oxygen · Heat · Moisture · Metals & Enzymes

❌  Do not store near direct sunlight or in hot areas: Direct sunlight and UV exposure can break down the oil’s chemical structure, speeding up oxidation and spoilage.

✅  Room Temperature Storage: Store in a cool indoor place away from direct light (15-20°C). This is the best way to preserve your oil’s quality over time.

❌  Refrigerator Storage: Although refrigeration reduces heat exposure, condensation can introduce moisture, which may degrade the oil’s quality.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Can I cook with traditional oils over heat?

We generally don't recommend cooking Sesame Oil S4 or Perilla Oil P3 over high heat. That said, they work fine for everyday home cooking over medium heat. If you do cook at higher temperatures, try adding the oil as a finishing drizzle after cooking — it brings out a richer, nuttier flavor.

Perilla Oil P1 and Sesame Oil S2, being more lightly roasted, work well as a substitute for regular cooking oil, adding a gentle nuttiness and aroma to your dishes.

Q. How much traditional oil should I use per day?

Traditional sesame and perilla oils are rich in unsaturated fatty acids, which support overall health. Perilla oil in particular is high in Omega-3 (α-Linolenic Acid / ALA) — Bangyudang's perilla oil contains approximately 63g of ALA per 100g.

According to the Korean Ministry of Health & Welfare Dietary Reference Intakes (2020), the recommended daily ALA intake for adult men aged 19–29 is 1.6g.

This means just one spoonful (approx. 10g) of perilla oil per day comfortably meets the recommended intake. However, since both sesame and perilla oils are plant-based high-fat foods, excessive consumption may lead to excess calories and increased body fat.

1–2 tablespoons (10–30g) per day is the sweet spot — used naturally as a salad dressing, vegetable seasoning, or drizzled over rice or noodle dishes.

"What makes our perilla oil different?"

Every seed. Every flame. Every detail matters.

Bangyudang is the brand that knows the difference best.

1. Moisture content of the seed

"The moisture in a washed and dried seed determines everything about its aroma. Too much moisture and the oil turns dull and grassy. Too little and it scorches"

▶ Bangyudang controls moisture to the optimal level — preserving the seed's truest, most natural aroma.

2. Roasting temperature & time

"The intensity of the flame defines the depth of the flavor. From a soft, delicate taste to a bold, deeply roasted nuttiness — the flame is everything"

▶ Bangyudang achieves a perfectly balanced aroma through its proprietary 3-stage radiant heat roasting process.

3. Rapid cooling immediately after roasting

"Lock in the aroma before it escapes."

▶ The moment roasting is complete, our rapid cooling technology captures the nutty aroma at its peak — preserving deep, full flavor all the way to the very last drop.

4. Bangyudang's micro-filtration system — purity, uncompromised

"Crystal clear. Stable. Long-lasting. Micro-filtration removes impurities, minimizing the risk of degradation even over extended storage."

▶ You get perilla oil that stays pure and clear, from the first drop to the last.

BGST Process & Technology

"Bangyudang goes beyond simple roasting. We've developed a multi-dimensional BGST + α technology stack — engineered to maximize both nutty flavor and safety."

#Etc — And More - Ongoing efforts including carbon footprint reduction and broader sustainability considerations.
