## Description

desertcart.com : Japanese Umeboshi Plum Paste with Shiso (8.8 oz/250g) - Pickled Plum, Gluten Free, Vegan, Plum Sauce Asian, Japanese Food, Onigiri, Sushi, Yakitori, Sashimi, Umeboshi Paste - Kinjirushi Wasabi : Grocery & Gourmet Food

Review: For onigiri - It's so salty! Perfect for umeboshi onigiri!
Review: With rice, it's nice! - Whoa, the plum paste just arrived yesterday and I'm already being asked to rate it ~ but that's okay because I did open and taste it immediately. It is certainly authentic "ume" and what I grew up eating in rice balls or to aid in digestion when under-the-weather. The paste is the best part of the preserved plum, it's the innards minus the fleshy skin and seed. It is sharp, tangy, salty and flavorful. It makes the back of my jaw hurt with saliva thinking about it. A dab or two mixed in hot rice sprinkled with seaweed flakes and sesame seeds...yum! I've got the rice going now.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ For onigiri

It's so salty! Perfect for umeboshi onigiri!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ With rice, it's nice!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So good! Umeboshi is umami with a fruity sour kick.
*by J***K on December 26, 2025*

this stuff is just perfect. maybe scraping the actual umeboshi off the seed is a little better tasting. Maybe not. A great alternative to anchovies is Caesar-style dressings and delicious right on top of rice.
