Pandan Leaf

Pandan Leaf is a fragrant green leaf widely used in Southeast Asian cooking and desserts for its sweet, floral aroma; it’s common in Malaysian, Indonesian and Thai cuisines and often used to scent rice, custards and drinks. It’s typically used fresh or as an extract/paste rather than eaten in large amounts. Nutritionally, pandan is low in calories and a modest source of fiber and micronutrients; it provides 100µg of vitamin K per 100g and also contains trace minerals such as manganese and copper. Because pandan is most often used as a flavoring, it contributes aroma and small amounts of beneficial nutrients and fiber rather than substantial calories or protein; its nutrient profile and plant compounds make it a useful culinary herb rather than a primary food source.
