requested item at our neighborhood market. To me it tasted very astringent, and a little bitter. Anyone have experience with it¿

I have no clue why my question marks are upside-down.

 
Here's a description.

The pickling brine from making umeboshi plums with sea salt and red shiso, aka beefsteak leaf, that impart its ruby red color. A tart, salty, festive condiment with beneficial organic acids. Sprinkle on blanched or steamed vegetables, add to salad dressings, marinades, hot sauce, salsa, and dips. Excellent for making pickles. 4.3% acidity. No artificial dyes, preservatives, or chemicals. Amber glass protected. Functional dispenser cap and refillable

 
Thanks, I did the research on it, but was so surprised by the taste, so strong and rather

off-putting. Since it was a customer request at our store, I wondered what anyone did with it in an actual recipe. Sometimes, those ingredients with the surprising tastes are excellent when combined with other ingredients. I love bold flavors but this one was a shocker!
I don't make pickles anymore...maybe I should try it as a marinade.
