A Slow Weekend in Japan | Processing Unripe Ume Plums into Syrup

Welcome to “Izumi in Japan” 🌿 A quiet early‑summer weekend — gathering unripe ume plums in the garden, washing each one carefully, preparing a simple syrup, and watching it slowly turn clear and golden. These gentle routines remind me how the season moves softly through our days. ⏱ Video Index 00:00 – Opening 00:05 – Harvesting ume plums 03:05 – Washing the plums 04:01 – Preparing ume‑plum syrup 07:34 – Syrup turning clear and finished #JapanVlog #RuralJapan #SlowLivingJapan #WeekendVlog #SeasonalJapan #UmePlums #SimpleLiving #JapaneseCountryside
