About us
Japan, with its ingredients and its artisans. Italy, with its food culture. UMAMI stands in between: it selects, brings over and transforms.
It all begins with a search: for ingredients, and for the people who know how to make them. Families, artisans, slow fermentation, raw materials chosen at the source.
From Japan, in their original packaging, come products such as shiro miso, rice koji, kombu and hon mirin.
In Italy we import them, study them and bring them into the kitchen.
Here we also develop our own Japanese-style recipes: for the table at home and for professional kitchens.
In our production kitchen in Stella, in the province of Savona, we make the UMAMI sauces, from Ponzu to Teriyaki, and pack some of the products that arrive from Japan.
The labels say so: “Made and packed by Family Foods Srl” on the sauces, “Packed by Family Foods Srl” on the Japanese products.
