It was a bit disappointing that Ume, Japanese green plum trees did not bear enough fruit this year again in my town.

 

But it was better than last year, so I could manage to make some ume juice and finish the first stage of umeboshi making into two containers.

 

 

Though I make lots of umeboshi every year, I am not so interested in eating it. 

 

I make it more for getting plum vinegar which is normally considered a by-product and not having a commercial value. 

For me, the plum vinegar is precious and is indispensable for my cooking. 

We can still buy it from the limited shops, but my hand made one is much tastier with lots of red shiso herbs in it, so I feel something missing when I use the one from the shops.

 

Unlike normal years, I wanted to make many of umeboshi this year as I now have added family members and one of them, my daughter wants to eat one umeboshi everyday.

I need to make 365 pieces at least !
Oh no, it is too much work !!

The first stage, marinating plum in the salt is OK,  

 

but the second stage of adding the red shiso herb requires lots of squeezing work for which I am not so good at,

 

and the third stage of sunbathing would take up my days and suck up my energy. 

 That’s why the commercial umeboshi omit the second and the third stage. 

They also cut down the amount of salt to satisfy the consumer’s conscious, which would reduce the benefit of this superfood.

 

Having talked much about umeboshi, I am not introducing the recipe of it as I want to pass my umeboshi recipe only by face to face. 

Today I am sharing “Vegan Banana Omelet”.
Before reading it, I want you to read my previous post in which I wrote about the chocolate and the bananas.  

Please get the fair-trade bananas if you live in the countries where the bananas cannot grow, and all the bananas are imported from the other countries.
