General Uses Top

Suggest a correction!

Young leaves and tender shoots are eaten as a leafy vegetable and seasoning in parts of southern China and Korea; they are sometimes blanched or stir-fried and incorporated into soups and savory dishes. The plant is used in traditional food preparations (e.g., namul-type seasoned greens), where flavor derives from its essential oil profile (notably 1,8-cineole and limonene). No industrial or craft uses are documented in standard references.
