You might have seen these similar large maple like green sesame leaves before; normally used as garnish on your sashimi platter. In Japanese, they are called sisho.
Koreans also use them, though as I understand, they are from the same vegetable family but different varieties. They called them deulkkae. Koreans love to wrap their food especially grilled meat in them.

They are sold in the Korean mini mart for about RM4 a packet containing about 20 or so leaves. Wonder if they are grown locally or imported?
Say 'aaaaah....' :)It is slightly bitter with a mild minty finish. Better with grillled meat (compared to salmon) because of the unique flavour.
