Hi @hieule8575, I definitely can and it's currently in production - Thank you for your support and suggestion!

Really like the mix of content, totally agree that looking at the care of the plant and then the use of the fruit or veg would make for some compelling videos!

Hi Tenzin, I really love your comments and take careful consideration in suggestions! I'm working on a video in regards to the care of the plant and how to use the defoliated leaves and branches. You'd be surprised what you can do with them! Thank you so much for supporting my channel!

love this video. Not only is it beautifully made and super chilled to watch, but it's also incredibly interesting. Those cocktails look fantastic.

Hello! I am also interested in an Ume growing guide video. I hope it is still something you are working on. Thank you for your informative videos.

Wow! That looked so good! I wish I could still have alcohol but I made a choice to stop several years ago because I found out I had non alcoholic fatty liver and the next stage after that is cirrhosis if you don’t baby your liver so no more alcohol, no more acetaminophen, no more of anything that stresses the liver. I’d rather have a liver that will get me to to old age than drink alcohol so it’s a no brainer.

It appears my method of explaining gardening topics break it down to the most simplest form and it's what everyone enjoys. I hope to grow this channel to provide as much information I possibly can, surrounding organic gardening, sustainability and most of all delicious and healthy food! Cheers!

@@UmamiGarden I'll look forward to them. Regardless of the niche, found your video after watching some drama on the news. It's nice to have creators producing content detached from drama, & where they actually care about the stuff they talk about. You seem to enjoy the stuff you make and put yourself into it which is refreshing on this platform. Either way, good luck and have fun!

I saw a guy like 6 months ago his channel name is "field days" and he made quality videos just like u do. Not many subscribers, he had like 10k when i found him. Now he almost got 1million subs. And i told him the same as i do to u. Just keep going with this quality content and u will get big someday. I wish u all the best and big growth in subscribers. I see you really like doing this, like gardening and so on and i wish that u will someday be able to live from ur hobbies. Keep going mate! :)

Damn you deserve at least 10 times more subs, keep up the good work man

Hi, you're very welcome! I'm working on a video you may want to watch, it's regarding grafting and how to get your Ume to fruit and flower in the same year they're grafted. All you'll need is a rootstock adapted to your climate and a scion of the ume variety you're seeking. I hope this future release will shed some light and encourage you to venture into expand your gardening skills :D Thank you for the sub! Please let me know if there's anything you'd like to see in the above video!

Just found your video and not much of a drinker but each New Years here I always try and get a bottle of Umeshu to Drink for the day ( normally its the small bottles they sell at a Variety Warehouse based Store I have near me )

Hi Destroyer804! Do you enjoy it warm or chilled? I love them chilled and topped with the umeboshi salt around the rim. Insanely delicious! Salty, tart, sweet and bold taste - You'll have to try it to see what I mean! 🤤 It's similar to a Michelada, but with a more subtle taste. If you have any Japanese or Korean markets in your area, look for Shiso or Umeboshi Furikake, make sure the ingredients don't have onions or it'll make your drink very unpleasant HAHAHAHA. Thank you so much for supporting my channel, you're the best!

Hey Umami Garden! I really enjoyed the video! I found it extremely thorough and insightful with all the helpful little nuggets of information. However after watching the video, I became a bit curious. Are there other traditional and non-traditional "fruit-shus", fruit infused shochus, made in Japan? If there are, would you happen to know the recipes for them? And if there are none, would you happen to know why are they not made with other fruits?

You’re so cool

@@UmamiGarden Wonderful! I managed to get some ume earlier this year and saved six of the seeds from the delivery. I'd love to know the method to germinate them. I haven't even cracked the outer pod yet while I've been researching. I look forward to the video! Is it true that it will take 10 years to get fruit once planted successfully?

​@@agobelle Hi Alyssa, there are several methods to germinate the seeds, forcing entry for it to grow isn't ideal. Scarification > Stratification is a useful method when approaching prunus seeds (Apricot, Cherry, Plum, Prune). My recommended solution is to graft the variety, making sure you're able to source the scion cultivar you desire. Seed grown it'll take 6-10 years, from my experience it's been 4-6 years for their first flower. Now this doesn't mean they'll make a quality fruit or are the exact clone of their parents. This is why grafting is recommended, it will ensure you're making an exact clone of the parent. The video is in development, I hope to release it soon so it can help you with your gardening journey!

Love the video! I had a couple questions I was hoping you may be able to help with. I'm actually growing some ume I got as grocery store ume a few years ago and they're starting to flower and hopefully fruit. First, can I cut open the umay to remove the pits so I can grow more seeds but still use the fruit to make to make umeshu? Second, do you have any idea if there is a Japanese store I may be able to access in the US that would sell other variety of ume scions so I can graft other varieties onto my existing plants?

I'm curious. I know you say no sake because it's more potent. But if that's what I'm looking for is that possible. What are the possibilities to use other alcohol bases, such as vodka or whiskey.

@UmamiGarden

2 жыл бұрын

Hi Jacquelin 👋 Shōchū has a very delicate and subtle alcohol taste, it doesn't overpower the taste of the ume essense. When using Sake, it tends to overpower the flavors we seek in Umeshu, with this in mind if you prefer a more potent alcoholic flavor - Sake or Vodka works too! Whisky is definitely a bold smoky and aged flavor, you may want to experiment by mixing a bit of it in the final product of the Umeshu to see how it tastes - In fact this might be a fantastic mixed drink on a summer day on the rocks! Thank you so much for supporting my channel!

Hi again Bengarland! Umeboshi salt is the crushed sun dried Shiso, there are remains of salt, juices and Shiso. It's a very delicious condiment , very popular in Japan, used as Furikake! Thank you!
