Culinary use
Like many other species belonging to the family Apiaceae, chamnamul has aromatic leaves and is used as a culinary herb.
Korea
In Korean cuisine, the smooth leaves and crunchy stems of young chamnamul (참나물) are served fresh or balanced as a spring namul (seasoned herbal vegetable dish). In North Korea, chamnamul-kimchi is a popular dish, known as one of Kim Il Sung's favourites.[6] 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.[7]
