5 Ways with Umami Bomb →

October 18, 2015

Best described as a FLAVOUR BOMB, this transformational paste is savoury deliciousness in a tube. One squeeze is enough to make good cooks great and great cooks extraordinary!

Supercharge the flavors in your everyday cooking. Use raw or cooked to add magic & deliciousness to all your dishes. Here's five ideas to help you get started:
 
1. DELICIOUSLY SAUCY MAC N CHEESE

The American classic, injected with extra oomph!

2. PUTTANESCA PASTA SALAD

Super delicious, no-cook pasta salad in minutes.

3. UMAMI TRUFFLED STEAK SALAD

A recipe by my friend and mentor, Nobu Matsuhisa, the ultimate flavor master.

4. PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM PIZZAS

A healthy, satisfying take on your favorite pizza.

5. UMAMI SALSA

A great sauce with grilled meat/fish, or a tasty dip with a bag of tortilla chips and some cold beers.
 

How Much Do I Use?

1-2 tablespoons in a dish for 2-4 people, or to taste when squeezing, dipping and spreading.

Learn more about the discovery and sources of umami in our Umami Section. Or read Laura's story of how she managed to fit umami in a tube.
