Health Benefits of Umeboshi
Used in Japanese medicine for centuries, umeboshi plums are valued for their alkalising and digestive properties. Rich in citric acid, they help break down lactic acid in the body, supporting natural detoxification. This Organic Umeboshi Puree contains no added sugar, preservatives, or artificial flavourings. It's certified organic by Australian Certified Organic (ACO), vegan-friendly, and naturally gluten-free. With minimal processing, this traditional product retains the full nutritional value of the fruit.
Cooking Ideas & Serving Suggestions
Refrigerate after opening and use a clean spoon to keep the product fresh. A little goes a long way! Stir a small spoonful into salad dressings, miso soups, stir-fries, or sushi rice for a burst of complex flavour. Spread it thinly on rice crackers or mix with tahini and lemon juice to create a tangy, creamy dip. Its versatility makes it a handy ingredient in both traditional and fusion recipes.
Storage Tips
Keep sealed in a cool, dry place before opening. Once opened, store in the fridge and consume within a reasonable time for best flavour.
