Suggest a correction or write a new one!
Allium monanthum, also known as Korean wild chive, is a spring vegetable found in woodlands of Korea, Japan, northeastern Russia, and northeastern China. It is unique in the Allium genus as it is usually dioecious, with male and female flowers on separate plants. The plant produces small bulbs and short scapes, with long and narrow leaves. In Korean cuisine, Korean wild chives are used in herbal cooking and can be eaten raw, blanched, pickled, or pan-fried. They are also used in stews and as a flavoring for soy sauce-based dips. In North Korea, they are a popular ingredient in radish water kimchi.
