Shibazuke Pickle Mix, 3.52 oz

Shibazuke are traditional pickles made with eggplant and red shiso. They have a refreshing taste with the touch of sourness that naturally develops during lactic acid fermentation. Usually it takes at least a week to make them from scratch, but if you have Kosyo’s Shibazuke Pickle Mix, you can make exquisite shibazuke overnight. The steps are very simple—coat seasonal vegetables with the mix and refrigerate them for half a day. This results in lightly seasoned, crisp vegetables with a touch of fruity ume plum sourness. You can eat them like an oil-free salad! Also, since the mix does not have the typical pink shibazuke color, you can retain the vegetable’s original color. Make colorful pickles or salads with colorful vegetables. Or if you garnish your shibazuke over grilled chicken or mix them in with boiled seafood, you’ll have a wonderful main dish. Shibazuke Pickle Mix comes in 5 individual packets of 20g (0.7 oz), each of which can accommodate 500g (18 oz) vegetables. How to use
