In Japan, Peucedanum japonicum is known to support longevity and have medicinal properties, and its Japanese name, chomeiso (長命草), translates to 'long-life grass'.

Chomeiso, also known as sakuna, is used medicinally for fatigue recovery and tonic effects. The roots and young leaves are utilized; the sakuna root is finely shaved, dried, and used for medicinal purposes. Finely shredded sakuna is mixed with tofu and white miso for a miso salad. Lightly blanched sakuna is chopped and stir-fried with pork and red miso (Chinese miso is also acceptable). Additionally, sakuna's young leaves are used in dishes such as garnish for sashimi, ingredients in goat soup, tempura, and dressed salads.　Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
