Perilla oil risottoSECTION 01 · 2026-07-31

I’m finishing a risotto with perilla oil, but its aroma and the Parmigiano feel disconnected. Where do I start?

Perilla oil’s heat sensitivity is the variable with evidence behind it, so compare three timings for adding the oil and track aroma retention.

140 min
232 min
336 min

Adding the perilla oil off the heat kept its aroma noticeably longer.

Ask before it goes on the menu.

Pair a whiskey highball, fermented
Three ways to bring the fermented note in, ready for tonight.
Balance a gochujang pasta's acidity
The acidity split by where it lands, one plate at a time.
Non-alcoholic pairing for tasting
Candidates matched to the course order, served one at a time.

Not just an answer. Something to try tonight.
