Umeboshi – The Sour Plum with Superpowers
Salty, sour, and brimming with health benefits, umeboshi has been a go-to remedy in Japan for generations. These pickled plums aid digestion, support liver function and help balance acidity in the body. Samurai even carried them into battle to prevent fatigue and illness. Pop one into a bowl of rice or enjoy it as a tangy side dish.
