Umeboshi paste: Easy healthy seasoning

Umeboshi paste is a pureed version of the famous Umeboshi apricots. It offers the same flavor benefits as whole apricots, but is easier to use as an ingredient in various dishes because of its spreadable and blendable texture.

Umeboshi apricots: A traditional Japanese superfood

Umeboshi apricots are a Japanese delicacy. They are pickled, giving them a distinct umami flavor. Umeboshi apricots have been central to Japanese cuisine for more than 1,000 years.

The umeboshi apricots are picked when they are just beginning to ripen and are then fermented in vats with red shiso leaves. This gives the umeboshi their characteristic orange-red color and umami aroma.

Our umeboshi are unique because we only use ingredients from organic farming. This ensures that you can enjoy the pure taste of umeboshi apricots. In addition, the fermentation process we use is different from most. Our umeboshi are first salted and then aged with lactic acid bacteria. So you also get a hefty dose of probiotics with every bite.

We obtain the umeboshi paste by mashing the apricots, we did not perform any other operations beyond that.
