Pimpinella brachycarpa (Kom.) Nakai |
|
Pimpinella brachycarpa, known as chamnamul and short-fruit pimpinella, is a species in the genus Pimpinella (family Apiaceae). It is a scented plant with saw-toothed, oval leaves, which bears white flowers between June and August, and edible baby leaves.
Like other plants of the parsley family, chamnamul has aromatic leaves used as a culinary herb.
In Korean cuisine, the smooth leaves and crunchy stems of young chamnamul are served fresh or blanced as a spring namul dish. In North Korea, chamnamul kimchi is a popular dish, known as one of Kim Il-sung's favourite. Recently in South Korea, chamnamul is one of the ingredients that frequently feature in Korean-style western food recipes, such as chamnamul pasta or chamnamul pesto.
