Kinjirushi Neri Ume Plum Paste 250 g

its not pure ume paste... lots of other ingredients (and plum isnt even listed on the ingredients on the bottle- it says japanese apricot but im going to assume thats the plum?!) but it is pretty delicious! the squeezy bottle is handy. will buy again.

I used it to season my rice with lunch (please ignore the sad tamagoyaki in the other side, I was in a hurry). It was very good tasting, nice strong flavor. I also used it in dressings for vegetables and cold soba noodles. My dressing recipe using this is: 2 parts rice vinegar, 2 parts sesame oil, 1 part koikuchi shoyu (Japan Brewed Kikoman is good enough for this, American brewed is honestly not, they taste very different.) and 1 part of ume paste. Just whisk it together. I put it on a cold soba salad with sliced daikon, carrot, cabbage, cucumber, kale, and green onion or chives. It's also good with moyashi/ beansprouts.

It tastes good sour and salty with a trace of plum flavor at the end, just the way it's supposed to taste

tasty

Good sauce. Had it last night with my homemade shrimp and salmon nigiri. I liked the flavour and texture very much.

A little saltier than I would like , but still really great
