Yellow ripe gingko nuts are a delicacy that can only be eaten in fall. Ginkgo is so effective that it is considered a medicine for longevity in India. Ginkgo fruit is considered a balanced food as it contains various nutrients such as protein, fat, calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin A, vitamin B1, and vitamin B2. In particular, ginkgo is a low-calorie food and has a low fat content, so it is good as a diet food. The ingredient called enteroplasma helps blood circulation and is also effective in preventing vascular diseases.
Ginkgo is relatively simple to cook, so you can enjoy a variety of dishes. You can cook rice by mixing rice and ginkgo nuts, or make ginkgo porridge with ginkgo nuts, pine nuts, and spinach. You can also make ginkgo skewers, which are often eaten as a side dish with alcohol, by roasting or boiling ginkgo and seasoning it with salt. When boiling ginkgo, peel off the outer skin, blanch it in salt water, rinse in cold water, and remove the inner skin.

■ gizzard shad
When it comes to representative seafood in the fall, gizzard shad comes to mind first. The reason why autumn shad is considered the best, as there is a proverb that says, “It brings back even a daughter-in-law who has left home,” is because the meat of the shad at this time of year increases and its oily and savory taste is maximized.
The fat content of shad in September is about three times higher than in other seasons. Gizzard gizzards born between April and June grow by eating animal plankton and begin to increase their fat mass from mid-July, reaching their peak after September. Gizzard shad is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which helps prevent cardiovascular disease by suppressing inflammation in the body and lowering blood cholesterol. Usually, gizzard shad is sliced with bones and eaten as raw fish or grilled with salt, but it can be tasted in various ways, such as pickled in salt and made into salted fish.

■ Chamnamul
Chamnamul, which is loved by many for its excellent taste and aroma, is rich in various nutrients. In particular, it is high in beta-carotene, which helps keep your eyes healthy, and it is rich in amino acids such as phenylalanine, valine, arginine, and aspartic acid, which activates brain activity and is good for preventing dementia.
It is rich in fiber, so it helps prevent constipation, and it is an alkaline food rich in minerals such as calcium and phosphorus, so it also plays a role in neutralizing an acidic constitution.
Chamnamul has bright colors and thin leaves. When dried, make sure it is clean and has the characteristic chamnamul scent. Chamnamul should be prepared by blanching it in boiling water with a little salt. If left at high temperature for a long time, the nutrients will be destroyed, so it is better to cook it quickly. The soft leaves can be wrapped in ssam, seasoned with vegetables, or added to pancakes.

Pomegranate is not only a fruit that is good for women, but it is also helpful for men by preventing diseases such as prostate cancer. In particular, it is low in calories, so it is easy to eat, and it is rich in vitamins, so it is effective in preventing colds and strengthening immunity.
