"Kennip" is the Korean word for perilla leaves, which are a widely used herb in Korean cuisine. Kennip kimchi is a popular side dish that can be prepared without the need for fermentation or brining. Typically, it is used to wrap rice, creating a delightful combination of flavors and textures. Additionally, perilla leaves pair well with grilled fish or meat, making for a perfect accompaniment to a Korean barbecue meal.
