Organic Umeboshi Paste - 180g

Organic pickled plums crafted into a luxurious ume paste.

This authentic umeboshi paste is crafted from ume (Japanese sour plums) and salt, following traditional fermentation methods. The result is a deeply savoury, tangy, and slightly salty paste with a bold, punchy flavour.

Umeboshi paste is a versatile ingredient, adding bright acidity and umami to both savoury and sweet dishes. It can be dabbed onto slightly salted cucumbers, radishes, or turnips for an instant pickle or paired with shaved katsuobushi to enhance its depth. It also works beautifully in sauces, dressings, marinades, and even desserts.
