    I live in Scotland. Anyone who tells you Kewpie tastes like salad cream needs to stop drinking petrol…
    I guess there’s a bit of a similar umami to both, Kewpie because it’s made with dashi (seaweed and fish stock) though it doesn’t have enough to taste of dashi…if that makes sense.

    I assume salad cream has something like an 80 year fermentation period before it’s “done” stuff is mingin 🤮

      @Sturgist it’s absolutely rank 😂 that gives me more confidence to bother buying some kewpie. Think they sell it in Sainsbury’s…

        I’d look for an Asian supermarket. Pretty sure they do sell it at Sainsbury’s, but I think the last time I was too lazy to go further than Sainsbury’s I ended up paying £2-3 more than at the Asian market.
