Organic Japanese Umeboshi Paste 150gr Clearspring

Clearspring Organic Umeboshi Paste is a traditional Japanese condiment made with ume plums fermented in sea salt and shiso leaves. It stands out for its intensely sour and salty flavor, a very characteristic combination of Japanese cuisine. It is a particularly interesting proposal for people looking to discover new organic ingredients and incorporate different flavors into their everyday recipes.

Umeboshi is a traditional Japanese specialty that is made from the fruit of the Prunus mume tree, known as ume. These fruits undergo a traditional salting process that gives them their concentrated and characteristic flavor. In this version from Clearspring, they are presented in the form of a paste, a particularly practical format for incorporating small amounts of the condiment into different preparations.

One of the main characteristics of this paste is its manufacturing process. Japanese ume plums are slowly preserved with sea salt and shiso leaves, an aromatic plant scientifically known as Perilla frutescens. The shiso contributes to adding color and flavor to the preparation, completing a traditional Japanese cuisine recipe.

Clearspring Organic Umeboshi Paste is particularly versatile in the kitchen. It can be used to season rice, sushi, vegetables, salads and various vegetable dishes. Its sour and salty flavor allows you to add intensity to recipes without using large quantities.

It is also an interesting option for preparing vinaigrettes, sauces and dressings. A small amount of umeboshi paste can be mixed with other ingredients to obtain a seasoning with sour and salty notes, especially suitable for oriental-inspired preparations.

In Japanese cuisine, umeboshi is usually combined with rice. It can be incorporated into the filling of rice balls wrapped in nori seaweed or used to complement the flavor of sushi rolls. It can also be spread a thin layer on cucumber slices or added to cooked vegetables.

Its composition stands out for the use of ingredients from organic farming, without preservatives or artificial ingredients added. In addition, it is a product of plant origin, suitable for a vegan diet.

It is important to bear in mind that this is a very concentrated condiment with a high salt content. For this reason, the manufacturer recommends using it in small quantities and adapting its consumption to individual dietary needs.

Clearspring Umeboshi Paste allows you to discover one of the most characteristic condiments of Japan, with a recipe based on organic ume plums, sea salt and shiso.
