Bai Cha Phlu (wild betel leaf)

Quick verdict

Status: unknown - for your review.

Confidence: low (AI-prepopulated from general food properties, not your own reactions).

Claimed concern

Wild betel leaf (Piper sarmentosum, Thai bai cha phlu, Piperaceae) - the edible leaf used to wrap miang kham. NOTE: this is NOT Piper betle, the leaf chewed with areca 'betel quid'. Low sugar, aromatic amides, generally food-safe in culinary amounts; moderate oxalate. Not a nightshade.

Decision notes

Low-risk as a culinary leaf once identity vs. Piper betle is confirmed.
