Akaume vinegar 500ml

Multi-purpose condiment of deep fruity flavor of plums.

This Akaume vinegar is the by-product in a process for pickling plums (Umeboshi) valued for centuries.
Used only unripe Ume (less or no agrochemical), perilla leaf (agrochemical and chemical fertilizer free), and salt (concentrated by boiling-down method).
We obtain this rich and mild taste only from Shiso pickled plums (Shiso-zuke Umeboshi), which have been familiar with the people in western part of Japan.
This ruby red vinegar is great for pickling new crop gingers, turnips, radishes, and cucumbers. Also, good for making Ume-vinegar Sushi.
It can be substituted for salt or other types of vinegars and enhances its tastes in your recipes.
