Clearspring Organic Japanese Umeboshi Paste (Salt-pickled Plum Paste) is a tart and tangy seasoning that can be used to enliven sushi, dips, dressings, spreads and sauces. Add a little to the centre of nori wrapped rice balls or to the top of the rice when preparing sushi rolls. Place a thin layer on chunky cucumber rounds to make a cooling summer treat and spread sparingly on cooked sweetcorn as an alternative to butter and salt. Remember to always use umeboshi paste in small quantities as it is concentrated and salty.

Strange but good

Never really tried anything like this before, so I've just been putting a little bit into buckwheat porridge. A little bit goes a long way, and it tastes strange but in a good way. I'll look up some recipes for it next.
