Umeboshi plums 100 gr

8,90€

Umeboshi is the fruit of the Japanese apricot tree (also known as plum), processed in a brine of salt and then vinegar so it can be eaten, as it is inedible when fresh. Ume means “plum” and boshi means “dried.” The salt slows the aging process and naturally preserves the fruit, while the vinegar balances the umeboshi’s acidic flavor.

The Japanese attribute medicinal virtues to umeboshi, such as the ability to boost immunity. Its high citric acid content aids digestion and stimulates the liver, creating a detoxifying effect on the body.

Description

Umeboshi has a very fruity aroma. Due to its high citric acid content, it has a very acidic, almost spicy, and traditionally very salty flavor.

Our version is slightly sweetened and reduced in salt (3%). Umeboshi can be used in a wide variety of dishes, such as vinaigrettes, salad dressings, noodles, sandwiches, marinades, spreads, and onigiri, or as a condiment to accompany rice, grilled fish and meat, and raw vegetables (cucumbers, radishes, carrots, etc.).

To enhance the fruity-sweet flavor of umeboshi, simply heat them gently on the grill. We guarantee that our umeboshi contain no colorings, additives, or preservatives.
