Umeboshi sauce

Ingredients 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon ultrafine sugar*
1/3 cup water1 teaspoon shiso leaves*
3 umeboshi*, pitted

**NOTE**
- Shiso leaves (salted beefsteak plant leaves) are not required, however, I felt it gave the sauce added saltiness.
- Number of umeboshi used depend on the size and the amount of flavor you'd like your sauce to have. The umeboshi I used were about an inch in diameter.
- Adjust sugar to the desired level of sweetness.
