Made from salted Japanese ume and shiso, this traditional umeboshi paste delivers a bright balance of acidity, salt, and natural fruit depth. Intensely savoury and clean, it works as a seasoning rather than simply a condiment.

A small amount lifts dressings, marinades, and grilled meats, or adds contrast to rich foods like avocado, seafood, and oily fish. Mix through steamed greens with sesame oil, stir into pasta or grain bowls, or use with rice for a quick, classic onigiri filling.

A concentrated seasoning that’s versatile, and brings instant acidity and depth to everyday cooking. Just a small amount brings balance, brightness, and depth to the simplest meal.
