This version is made with kombu dashi (昆布だし) — stock drawn from kombu (昆布, sea kelp) — using kombu from Hokkaido. The dashi adds umami and lets the salt come down, so it tastes rounder and less sharp than standard umeboshi. The plum itself is Kishu Nanko-bai (紀州南高梅), known for thin skin and soft, juicy flesh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"seto-p\"\u003eBecause the salt is reduced and the umami is higher, this style pairs more widely than a plain salt-and-shiso umeboshi — it sits well next to noodles, rice, and richer dishes rather than only as a sharp accent. Made with no preservatives or coloring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"seto-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"seto-h3\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"seto-spec-table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKishu (Wakayama), Japan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUmeboshi (梅干し) — kombu-dashi sour plum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlum variety\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKishu Nanko-bai (紀州南高梅)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKombu\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrom Hokkaido\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIngredients\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlum, kombu dashi, salt — no preservatives, no coloring\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSodium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLow sodium (reduced salt)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 pieces per jar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNet weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 oz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJar size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eH 3.5\" × Ø 2.5\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDietary\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGluten free\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStorage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCool, dark place; away from heat and humidity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"seto-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"seto-h3\"\u003eHow to enjoy\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"seto-p\"\u003eThe lower salt and added umami make this an easy match for full meals — soba, udon, curry rice, and ginger pork all work.
