Kkaenip (깻잎) pesto

[angelahirst]

fabulous video, Tammy, I came here to look at your attribution but I learnt so much more!

[scarywolfie]

i wasted alot of time just looking at cooking videos, and a lot of it on yours.

anyway, i think this is a really good idea. to bad i can't try it.

[dbxl1127]

i really hate the leaves although im korean but that spaghetti looks sooooooo delicious!!!!!! 10/10

[melonbarmonster]

i'm gonna try this. I have this stuff growing in my garden like weed.

[Tamar1973]

@melonbarmonster Well, let me know how it turns out! :)

[Xentradi97]

Wow you like Kketnip. Few foreigners I know like it as it has quite unique taste and flavor. I think the leaves are a distant cousin of Mints or Cilantro... but don't quote me on that. I'm just guessing. 

[Tamar1973]

@Xentradi97 Yes, Kkaenip is awesome! It is in the same botanical family as mint, cilantro, basil, etc.

[misspookietoodle]

it's perilla, not pernilla! lol :) outside of that, what a great recipe!!! thank you so much! :) it's a really easy plant to grow. i've got some i've been growing for about 4 years (the korean type)... very strong plant. can survive 90% of it's leaves being removed.

I am an ESL teacher in Korea and was doing a search to try and find basil here. Thanks for your video! I'll try making it with 깻잎 instead!

[etatauri]

Wow this actually looks amazing

[yellowman88]

brave of you to try and experiment. Love all your fusion recipes very creative and looks delicious.

[RevolutionOfCG]

'Your husband's coworkers!' LOL

[Tamar1973]

I can't test my recipes on my own coworkers because I work from home! LOL!

[TuOpinionEsMierda]

when you make" pesto" with Kkaenip ,does it last as long pesto made of basil does ?or just very few days?

[Tamar1973]

I eat it right away or within a day or so. I am not certain about the long-term shelf life of Kkaenip pesto.

[TuOpinionEsMierda]

Thanks Tammy!

[TuOpinionEsMierda]

pine nuts = piñones???

[Tamar1973]

Yes, I believe so.

[HwarangKnights]

Looks great! i didn't know that kkennip was from italy, and i'm not sure if i've had a pasta with it. I'm so going to try it. Thanks for your great videos.. always a pleasure!

[Tamar1973]

Kkaennip is not from Italy, basil pesto is from Italy.

[HwarangKnights]

Oh I see, my mistake ;) thanks for the correction!

[kooktocook]

Your food always looks good and the vids informative. Thanks Tammy. cheers! KtC

In my city, we have a kaiten sushi restaurant and it is run by a Korean chef. Me and him have a very good relationship. He will often make me something special. One night he made me Kkaenip wrapped rice. He had pickled the Kkaenip for over a year. It was fragrant and delicious.

[ifnwebtvbeta]

looks tasty!

good explenation of Italian basil pesto ;-)

thanks for sharing

very good Tammy^^ 5*****

When Koreans eat 삼겹살(Samgyupsal-roasted sliced pork), they put some meat on Kkaenip (깻잎) with soybean paste sauce(쌈장) and wrap it all together and make it like a pouch.

[powerplantop]

Interesting idea. I bet that would be good on soba noodles.

[maraskywalkeriii]

That looks crazy good!

did you ever try it with sesame oil to further emphasize the Korean flare? If so, what was it like?

[Tamar1973]

No, I didn't try it with sesame oil because the oil would have hopelessly overwhelmed the perilla leaves.

[phofseth]

Nummy, nummy. Love spicey noodles.  Can't wait to try it.

[Tamar1973]

The only spice here is the garlic. Otherwise, they aren't spicy at all.

[ilikethewok]

Very interesting!! This looks so delicious. Thx for the post.

[chantingmom]

Thanks Tammy, looks great. A must try.

[RainaDragonfire]

Yay your back ! ANd with aawesome vid to boot!

[qiranger]

Good stuff!

[MikeOfKorea]

Wonderful! I buy the canned kimchi version as a snack every so often.

[Wivanunu]

What a white kitchen you have. Do you have kids? Because a big spongebob cookie jar would certainly brighten it up a bit!

[Wivanunu]

Finally a new video! Do you ever watch Maangchi's video's?  I think she just used those leaves in a recipe.

Yum.....looks good to me. :)

[Tamar1973]

Yeah, I saw her video. I've been working on this video for at least 3-4 months. When I saw her video, I realized I just needed to stop tinkering and just do it.

[bertintowncenter]

Very Nice !! I love Pesto !! So I know I will love this !!

[KYUNGILNAM]

i miss marinated one.

[melonbarmonster]

we plant these every spring and we end up having endless supply of fresh kkatnip most of the year. i can't buy them anymore... i actually prefer the younger leafs that are the size of your hand or slightly smaller.

[Tamar1973]

I've considered growing my own as well.

[JordenSpax5]

Yay A new cooking vid :D
