I’m the granddaughter of a Japanese woman

Hi everyone!

My grandma was from Tokyo and she came to the US and had my mom and my two uncles. Long story short my grandmother made Japanese dishes, but my mom being the youngest didn’t take interest into what she was cooking/buying and then her mother unfortunately passed in a car accident when my mom was 19. SO my mom has implemented so many Japanese snacks and foods but sometimes she forgets what/how my grandma got them.

The other night we were eating umeboshi (pickled plums) and my mom told a story about her mom buying the dried version of them. I scoured the internet for hours and I couldn’t find them. I am willing to hear some suggestions (if anyone can help).

Hope that this is a good sub to post this!
