From Sushi to Sandwiches: Why Umei Mayo Belongs in Every Kitchen

Whether you’re a foodie who loves Asian cuisine or someone who just wants to level up lunch at home, there’s one secret weapon your pantry might be missing — Umei mayo.

This creamy, egg-free condiment takes inspiration from Japanese mayonnaise but reimagines it for today’s modern kitchen. It’s plant-based, versatile, and available in flavours that make every dish pop.

What Makes Umei Different

Umei isn’t your regular mayo, it’s:

  • Eggless & Vegan-Friendly – emulsified with plant protein instead of egg yolks

  • Asian-Inspired – by the iconic Japanese mayo

  • Flavour-Driven – each variety designed to elevate a different style of cuisine

The Umei Flavour Line-Up

Each Umei mayo flavour brings a unique twist to your table:

  • Gochugaru Mayo – smoky, spicy heat that complements burgers, tacos, or Korean fried chicken.

  • Yuzu Mayo – bright and citrusy; perfect for sushi, salads, and poke bowls.

  • Seaweed Mayo – rich in umami; pairs beautifully with rice bowls, dumplings, and seafood.

  • Japanese Style Mayo -  is creamy, tangy, and umami-rich, inspired by the cult-favourite classic but 100% plant-based and egg-free.





5 Ways to Use Umei Mayo Every Day

  1. Sushi & Rice Bowls – Drizzle Umei Yuzu Mayo for a tangy lift.

  2. Sandwiches & Wraps – Swap out butter for Gochugaru Mayo for a spicy twist.

  3. Salad Dressing – Whisk Seaweed Mayo with soy sauce and sesame oil for an instant Asian-style dressing.

  4. Burgers & Fries – Combine Gochugaru Mayo and ketchup for a smoky “secret sauce.”

  5. Street Food-Style Snacks – Use any Umei flavour as a dip for gyoza, tempura, or spring rolls.
