Eden Umeboshi Paste, Pickled Ume Plum Puree, Artisan Made in Japan, No MSG, No Chemical Additives, 7oz

Yummy! And brings the tang I used to get with tomatoes. I'm not sure if I have always been sensitive to tomatoes, but during an elimination diet I discovered that nightshades (tomatoes, white potatoes, peppers, eggplant) cause me inflammation. I use a this as a replacement for tomato paste. It brings the tang and depth needed. It's saltier than tomato paste, so I don't use it one-for-one, but taste as I go. I end up using less salt too - especially in a soup broth.

I have been buying this brand for years. Never dissapoints.

Yummmy on steamed corn!

Not as thick as it used to be at all. Otherwise it's fine and helpful for digestion.

I highly recommend this Eden Umeboshi Paste. It's as good as most any you could obtain in Japan. Plus it doesn't contain the MSG and other chemicals Japanese foodstuffs are often full of. Nice clean taste. As a fan of umeboshi, this doesn't disappoint.

I love umeboshi! But I don't like dealing with the pits. This paste is so convenient. I put it on everything from corn on the cob to hamburgers.

The product was good although the container was substandard. I had to put the product in sealable different container.
