Tassajara Lime Ume Dressing

This dressing is great with daikon or carrot-based salads. Soak them briefly, then drain well. Garnish with slivered nori.

1/2 cup lime juice
1 1/2 tbsp ume plum paste
1/2 cup sugar
salt, to taste (this brings out the crucial flavour of the ume - otherwise it is too sweet/tart)

Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk well to blend. Serve chilled.
