The full story

About this product

Perilla seeds (Perilla frutescens) are a hidden gem of Himalayan cuisine — nutty, aromatic, and packed with omega-3 fatty acids. This family-size pack is ideal for regular home use.

Key benefits

  • One of the richest plant sources of alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3)
  • Supports heart health and reduces inflammation in traditional diets
  • High in calcium, iron, and fibre
  • Organic and unprocessed

How to use

Dry-roast until popping and fragrant, then grind into paste or sprinkle over rice and vegetables. Use in perilla ezay, mix into dough for flatbreads, or press for oil. Roasting is essential for digestibility and flavour.

Storage

Keep sealed cool. Refrigerate after opening to preserve omega-3 oils.
