100% Korea-Grown
[Jirisan Chereum] Untoasted Perilla Oil
Jirisan Chereum has two key selling points:
The first is that they use only 100% Korea-Grown Perilla Seeds. Nearly all other Korean brands import their perilla seeds from abroad to keep prices low. However, Jirisan Chereum is a small local operation (owner shown below) that competes on quality. In fact, they grow their own perilla seeds in Korea, near the base of Jirisan Mountain. The company is in control of their entire oil production - from seed cultivation to oil extraction.
Second, their Perilla Oil is pressed-to-order. Unlike large food conglomerates, Jirisan doesn't mass-produce their oil at one time. Instead, they press just enough seeds to fill each order. The perilla seeds are sightly toasted at a very low temperature and squeezed only once. The extracted oil is then filtered two times for a clean, superior taste.
Simply said, it's Korea's finest perilla oil.
Note: This is an untoasted perilla oil - which is reserved for salads, taken raw, or drizzled as a rice topping. For most everyday Korean recipes, we actually recommend using a toasted oil - click here.

How do I use Perilla Oil?

But Perilla Oil is especially popular for tossing namul banchans like Eggplant Namul, Spinach Namul, Gosari Namul and Aster Namul. You can also use perilla oil to garnish dishes like Spicy Braised Tofu and Bibimbap. Or simply use a few drops on your eggs in the morning!
