Cook With Umami Unico

Noshejan Umami Unico Hand Pies

Deep, savory, and quietly transformative, Umami Unico is the seasoning you reach for when you want food to taste richer, warmer, and more satisfying without adding heaviness.

 

Everyday meals, made deeper

Some nights you want comfort.
Some nights you want something layered and complex.
Most nights, you just want your food to taste… fuller.

That’s exactly why we created Umami Unico.

Umami Unico is our small-batch, umami-rich seasoning blend made with shiitake mushrooms, kelp, herbs, and warm aromatics. It doesn’t shout, it deepens. It rounds out flavors, adds savory body, and makes simple meals taste more complete.

No fillers. No shortcuts. Just natural, layered umami.

 

Why Umami Unico works

Many seasonings add spice or salt. Umami Unico adds dimension.

Shiitake mushrooms bring earthy depth. Kelp adds mineral roundness and subtle body. Garlic, onion, and herbs create a savory backbone, while citrus and warming spices lift the blend so it stays balanced rather than heavy.

It’s blended in small batches to deliver:

  • Deep, savory richness that enhances—not overwhelms
  • Layered umami complexity from mushroom + kelp
  • A warm, rounded finish that makes dishes taste more complete

It doesn’t change what a dish is — it makes it taste more like itself.

 

Skip the guesswork — this blend is ready

You could layer mushroom powder, herbs, citrus, spices, and kelp yourself, adjusting ratios every time.

Or you could reach for one blend that already does the balancing for you.

Umami Unico gives you:

  • Consistent umami depth in every dish
  • One jar instead of multiple ingredients
  • Confidence that your food will taste richer and more satisfying

It’s subtle in the best way — the kind of seasoning people notice without knowing why.
