Fried chicken roll with ume pastes


Fried chicken roll with ume pastes

Everytime I work with the weight in the gym, I try to have animal protain. 🙂
It goes well with pickled plum(Umeboshi) which is mede of Japanese apricot(Ume), touted as a macrobiotic food product nowadays.
Umeboshi is a traditional preserved food in Japan. It is often put in a rice or a rice ball in a boxed meal(bento) to make it last longer.
It tastes very sour, but it is known as healthy food. Most of Japanese know that it is served with rice gruel(okayu) when you are sick as it helps digestion.
Why don’t you try eating umeboshi?
