I always eat sashimi with wasabi soy sauce, but I wanted something more refreshing for the hot summer days, so I came up with this umeboshi bonito soy sauce.Adjust the seasoning for the sauce depending on the umeboshi plums. Recipe by Hokkori-no

I've been making this dish for a while now since I love sweet onions and umeboshi. You could also swap the onion for julienned daikon radish.Rub the onion with salt before soaking it in water. When using sweet onion, do not soak for too long. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

This is an adaptation of a pasta dish using Kishu umeboshi with chicken tenders and kombu broth. The flavor is a bit different, but it's still a delicious, light pasta dish ♡Toss quickly once you add the pasta to prevent it from drying out! At the restaurant, they serve this with steamed chicken tenders, but I stir-fried them instead to add richness and to save time. Recipe by LazyHata

Drain excess water from the tofu first, cut into small pieces, then mix with the dressing. It prevents the dish from being watery. It also helps to improve the dish's appearance, and makes the dish absorb the flavor better.Use your preferred amount of umeboshi. You can just top the mixed seasoning on the chilled tofu, instead of mixing it all together. You can make many variations by using nori-seaweed tsukudani (simmered in soy sauce), kimchi, spicy salted cod roe, takana pickles, shibazuke (pickled vegetables in salt and shiso leaves), nametake mushrooms, tuna and soy sauce, etc... as a dressing. It's also delicious to sprinkle garnishes, such as sesame seeds. Recipe by Hironozomiyuuma

When I lived in Miyazaki Prefecture, there was a restaurant with delicious chicken nanban that used this umeboshi tartare sauce. I wanted to eat it again, so I tried making it.Be sure to thoroughly squeeze out the moisture of the cucumber pickles. Mix in the boiled egg after letting it cool. Recipe by Ayako

I came up with this new dish by combining an idea from a recipe from my reliable Cookpad mate, "tomimo" with one of my own recipes.Toss the ingredients in the dressing right before serving. While it also tastes good tender, it will be a bit watery. Adjust the amount of umeboshi depending on the type you use. Recipe by Chikori mama

I love yakitori.I like to eat it sometimes with different sauces other than the usual soy-sauce based one.If you brush either ume-mayo or wasabi-mayo sauce on the chicken at the beginning it will get burned, so brush it on halfway through cooking or only at the very end. Recipe by Arikan

This dish is great for those times when you need one more dish but you don't have enough time nor ingredients.I came up with this idea just at such a moment and used what I could find in the refrigerator.Honestly, it only takes 3 minutes to make. Easy, but an authentic taste.The tartness of salt-cured plum (umeboshi) is great in this recipe. If using sweet honey-soaked umeboshi, replace the mirin with an equivalent amount of Japanese noodle dipping sauce.Use mentsuyu (Japanese noodle dipping sauce) that's been concentrated about 3-4 times.Adjust the quantity to your liking. Recipe by Ichigoaporo

As it was bonito season, I came up with a tasty way to consume them seared.Be careful not to overcook the bonito. If you're using a light ponzu sauce, you may want to add a bit of soy sauce for more flavor. Recipe by humming_m

Since I use a low-calorie, health-conscious mayonnaise, it doesn't melt when heated like regular mayonnaise, so I add it last.With such tasty flavoring, you'll be able to eat a lot of konnyaku.For those who don't like spice, omit the red chili pepper.The bold flavor makes it a good dish for a snack or as a bento item. For 1-2 servings. Recipe by putimiko
