QING Umeboshi in Plastic Jar - 1KG

Umeboshi from QING, 1kg, in a plastic jar. These are pickled ume plums, sour and salty, the sharp red ones that sit in the middle of an onigiri. The sourness is the point. They are not a sweet pickle.

The classic job is an onigiri filling. They also go in a bento, on rice at breakfast, and pounded into a paste for a sauce or a dressing when you want that same sour-salt hit.

Keep the jar cool and dry until you open it, then refrigerate it. A kilo is a kitchen jar. At home you would work through it over many rice balls, not one lunch. Sold under the QING name.
