Shiokoji banana dessert

Today we’ve got a quick treat with an unusual yet amazing flavor. This dessert is simply unique thanks to its salty-sweet umami taste — and it’s absolutely delicious. We’re so thankful for it!
 

Ingredients:

  • 2 bananas
  • 1 teaspoon of Shiokoji
  • 50ml soy milk
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Finely crushed almonds
  • Finely ground cinnamon

 

Method:

  1. Cut one banana into pieces (for making the puree).
  2. Cut the second banana into small cubes.
  3. Place the first banana (in pieces), Shiokoji, soy milk, and lemon juice into a bowl and blend until smooth.
  4. Mix the puree with the banana cubes from the second banana.
  5. Refrigerate and let it chill.
  6. Then sprinkle with almonds and cinnamon.

 

Variations

  • For extra sweetness, you can add honey.
  • Try it with other fruits as well (strawberries, mango, kiwi, etc.).
