a plum a day - Mon 29th Nov 2010
Preserved Ume apricots (translated as "plums" in English are a fascinating sharp and salty squishy fruit. Coloured red with perilla leaves (which has similar claims to antibiotic properties). From what I've read, they are the Japanese equivalent of "an apple a day keeps the doctor away". Although a single fruit is a little mouth puckering (traditionally they are served with rice for breakfast), I find that they perk you up. For me they work better than St John's Wort as a happy little zap to the system.
