Korea

[edit]

In Korean cuisine, the smooth leaves and crunchy stems of young chamnamul are served fresh or balanced as a spring namul (seasoned herbal vegetable dish). In North Korea, chamnamul-kimchi is a popular dish, known as one of Kim Il Sung's favourite.[6] Recently in South Korea, chamnamul is one of the ingredients that frequently feature in Korean-style western food recipes, such as chamnamul pasta or chamnamul pesto.[7]
