■ How to save perilla
Refrigerate
First, pour a small amount of water into an empty bottle and put it with the perilla stem down. Be careful not to let the leaves come in contact with water as they will be easily damaged.
Wrap it and store it in the vegetable compartment of the refrigerator. Change the water about once every three days. If it is properly refrigerated while it is as fresh as possible, it will last for 2 to 3 weeks.
If you do not have a bottle, wrap it in kitchen paper, soak it in water and moisten it, and store it in a plastic bag or tapper.
Freeze storage
Cut the perilla into small pieces, chopped and shredded. Easy-to-use cutting method is OK.
Put it in a freezer storage bag such as a zipper bag and go to the freezer as it is.
If frozen, it can be stored for 1 month to 3 months at the longest. When using it, you can cook it in addition to the ingredients while it is frozen.
When you want to use it, you can take it out and topping it as it is, so if you chop it and freeze it, it will come in handy as a condiment. If you think you can't eat it right away, freeze it as soon as possible!
