In this two part hands-on workshop (separated by 1 month), you will learn to make umeboshi, traditionally cured Japanese pickled plums! Umeboshi (梅干) is salted Japanese pickled plums. Packed with umami, saltiness, and subtle floral aromas, these little morsels pack a mighty flavorful punch! In Part 1, we will start with fresh ume (plums) and prepare the jar for a month-long curing. In Part 2, we will separate the plums from the liquid (umeshu), dry them for a few days before jarring them up again for a longer cure. Includes your own take-home jar of umeboshi (ready next year) as well as samples of finished umeboshi.
