Tangy and salty, umeboshi is a savory plum pickle made of fiercely tart ume plums, colored naturally by red shiso leaves. The soft texture, bright tartness, and beautiful red color are a result of authentic traditional methods. A Japanese meal staple, long regarded as a folk remedy for hangovers and morning sickness, umeboshi can be added to steamed rice, soups, braises, and sauces. With a stronger taste than your usual pickle; a little goes a long way!
These pickled plums are low in calories yet contain a good amount of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber, giving you the most nutrition bang, not just flavor, for your buck..
Yumé Boshi is a small food producer located in Oakland, California that makes Japanese preserves in small batches, using traditional artisanal methods and local produce from California.
