I thank you for your time and energy sharing all these wonderful recipes/stories. They had perilla leaves at the farmers market last spring. I knew you could use them to wrap things but nothing else. I am so excited to find your site and can not wait to try some recipes! Spring feels a long way off right now especially since we are in the middle of a snowstorm. Blessings and be well

So glad I found this recipe. Finally found perilla leaves again. I had been making them incorrectly. This recipe tastes perfect.

I’m not seeing an amount listed for the onions & green onions?

In reply to Michelle.

No worries – that’s what I’m here for! I did say cook on medium heat (I just changed that into bold so it’s more visible). It starts bubbling right away because there’s so little liquid. And yes, you stack all the leaves and the sauce in the pot BEFORE you turn the stove on. COVER and turn on the heat. Check about 1 min in to see it bubbling and then to turn the leaves over if you think it’s too high. Cover again and cook for another min or so. Good luck. Cheers!

Hi JinJoo, what setting should I use on the stovetop? Sorry for such a basic question but I’m not a good cook (yet?). You wrote that it should start bubbling right away, so does that mean it should be on high? And to turn the stove on after the piles of leaves are stacked up?
