In the pristine fields of Korea, there grows a humble but powerful superfood that has been cherished for centuries — perilla seeds, the source of the fragrant and nutty perilla powder.
🌿 What is Perilla Powder?
Perilla powder is made by finely grinding roasted perilla seeds, known as “deulkkae” (들깨) in Korean. It’s a traditional ingredient often used in soups, stews, and dipping sauces. Beyond its unique flavor, it’s valued for its nutritional benefits, including healthy fats, plant protein, and a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids.
💪 Health Benefits of Perilla Powder
| Benefit | Description |
|---|---|
| 🧠 Brain Health | Rich in ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), supports cognitive function and reduces inflammation. |
| ❤️ Heart Friendly | May help lower cholesterol and support cardiovascular health. |
| 🍽️ Digestive Support | High in fiber and gentle on the stomach. |
| 🌿 Natural Antioxidant | Contains polyphenols and flavonoids that help fight oxidative stress. |
Many Korean elders still stir a spoonful into hot broth on cold mornings — not only for warmth but as a daily health ritual.
🍲 How Do You Use It?
- Add 1–2 teaspoons to your soybean paste soup or beef stew
- Sprinkle over freshly steamed rice for a nutty kick
- Mix into your salad dressing or even smoothies for a healthy twist
The subtle aroma and creamy texture will surprise you — in the best way.
