The Korea Forest Service selects ''Eosuri'' as the agricultural product of the month! > Food

'Eosuri' is said to have been a precious mountain vegetable that was served on the king's table since ancient times.
I'm hearing about this mountain vegetable for the first time, but I don't know if Koreans know this plant well.

1. Eosuri root extract suppresses inflammation and helps with antioxidant activity, strengthening the immune system.
2. It contains ingredients that can have a positive effect on protecting brain nerves and relieving depression symptoms.
3. It can be eaten as a vegetable salad or as a wrap, and can also be enjoyed in various ways such as pickled vegetables, pancakes, and stir-fried dishes.
4. It has a unique bitter yet fragrant taste, making it perfect for the spring season when it's easy to lose your appetite.

There's a Korean expression, 'Eosurikhada.(어수룩하다.)' which is said to have originated from this plant. Oh! I just learned about it!

[TIP] Eosurikhada.(어수룩하다.)
- Naive and clumsy due to lack of thoroughness in appearance or speech There is a place.
- It is very loose because there is no proper control by system or discipline.
