Hey Shari! Love the blog! What is ume plume vinegar? Can another vinegar be substituted in the recipe? I would love to make this.
Ume Plume Vinegar is an oriental pickled plum vinegar with a salty sweet flavor. You can substitute either red wine vinegar or a rice vinegar if you would like. Let me know if you like the recipe!
