Umeboshi (Japanese pickled plums) are used for all sorts of gastronomic and medicinal purposes in Japan. These ones are strictly speaking Cumbrian pickled damsons, made by the fair hand of Ms. Guthrie. They've been kept for months under a heavy weight, in alcohol, salt and red shiso they're now partially-dried off and on the table.
A bargain at £1.00 a jar I believe.
