Our Products
We make slow food so you can cook fast
Back in 2017, during my second class, I taught how to make my favourite Asian pantry essentials. When I finished the class by saying "keep this refrigerated and open a year later," students were seriously underwhelmed 😅. Yet fermentation and ageing are the backbone of Asian cooking so I decided to do the waiting for you. Hence Umami soy sauce was launched.
As we added more classes, more products were requested: typically ones involving a long list of ingredients or labour-intensive. Years later, now we offer a range of small-batch Eastern products that are simple, versatile and essential to your everyday cooking, whether Asian or not.
Awesome Flavour
It’s in our name: delicious (uma,うまい) taste (mi,味). We apply umami food principles to create deep, layered flavors to power your food and create long lasting satisfaction.
Quality ingredients
Handpicked vegetables and meats from Woolworths, homegrown herbs, raw unprocessed aromatics and sun-ripened fruits.
Real deal food
A flavour developed over time is our secret ingredient. We ferment and age for months, even years. Products are made to order. Free of preservatives, unnecessary salt, sugar and fats.
Kind to the Earth
Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. We compost our food waste, use recycled packaging and offer an exchange on our glass bottles and ice packs.
