My sister said I could use them in salads or even wrap them around some meat which is what I did as pictured above. I put some mayonnaise in between the leaves as well. The leaves had a very mild taste. The peppers are slightly hot, but were very fresh having been picked the same day. The red ones were hotter as I would have expected. I was happy try something new and now I can say I have had perilla leaves.
I gave some to my friend S who said she would put them in her salads. Husband M tasted everything but decided to eat his regular food after that.
And welcome to October!

You could give it a try, it's a good idea to prepare it that way.
Not interested in Korean food, but would love to try those leaves though.
Those sound very interesting and I have never heard of these leaves before. Looks like you made excellent use of them.
I like how you wrapped them around meat, that’s a fun idea. The peppers look so fresh too. Always nice to try garden produce straight from the source.
Interesting - never heard of them - so kind of those people to share!
I've never heard of these either, Christine. Glad you enjoyed them!
Have a nice day!
I haven't heard of these either. I think I'd put them in salad myself, but it's fun to see how else you could use them. Happy October.
I had to look up Perilla leaves, thanks for cluing me in.
I don't recognize those leaves either. Your dish using them looks very good.
Not something I've tried ...
Happy October wishes.
All the best Jan
It's always fun to try something new.
