Yamaki Jozo blends sun-dried ume (Japanese plums) with their brown rice miso and raw sugar to make this beautiful miso. It has such a delightful combination of sweet, sour and salty flavors, with a floral aroma and lovely miso notes.

Use as a dipping sauce or brushed on grilled chicken or vegetable dishes. It is also delicious as a spread. Yamaki Jozo suggests using like a jam and spreading a thin layer on bread to make a nice plum-flavored "miso bread,"It kind of reminded us of an apricot jam.
