Setting the Table with Jimoto this Spring/Summer

As the weather warms up and the days get longer, there’s nothing better than enjoying fresh, vibrant flavours with friends and family.
 

At Jimoto Foods, we’re all about celebrating the season by bringing you recipes that capture the essence of Spring and Summer dining. Whether you're cooking for two or hosting a laid-back gathering outdoors, we’ve got you covered with dishes that make the most of bold, seasonal ingredients paired perfectly with cold drinks.

Here are three dishes we’re loving this season

Kingfish Ceviche with Spicy Ume and Lime Dressing and Coconut

Inspired by the fresh, tangy flavours of Nikkei cuisine, this kingfish ceviche is a must-try for hot days. The combination of our Spicy Ume & Lime Dressing with coconut creates a zesty, tropical twist on a classic ceviche. The delicate kingfish is cured to perfection, absorbing the bright acidity of the ume and lime, while the coconut adds a creamy balance. It’s a refreshing dish that’s light, flavourful, and pairs beautifully with an ice-cold beer or a tangy fruity cocktail.
 

Miso Barramundi with Lemon Myrtle Greens

For a slightly heartier dish that still keeps things light, our miso-marinated barramundi is a showstopper. The rich umami from the miso complements the delicate flavour of the fish. Served atop steamed greens dressed in our Lemon Myrtle & Yuzu Ponzu, this dish is perfect for an outdoor barbecue or an intimate dinner. It’s a great option to pair with cold sake for a refined, yet refreshing, dining experience.

BBQ Pork Ribs with Umami Spice Mix

Nothing says summertime quite like barbecue, and our Jimoto-Style barbecue ribs take it to the next level. We’ve crafted the ultimate smoky BBQ spice mix with our Umami Powder and rich sauce with our Shiso Teriyaki, infusing the ribs with deep, savoury flavours that complement the natural smokiness of the grill. These sticky, flavourful ribs are perfect for sharing with friends and family at any outdoor gathering, and they pair perfectly with a crisp cold beer to balance out the richness.

Set your table with Jimoto Foods and make the most of the season with these easy-to-make, flavourful dishes that are sure to impress your guests—or make a cozy dinner for two something truly special. These recipes are perfect for sharing at large family gatherings outdoors as well, creating a laid-back, communal atmosphere where everyone can dig in and enjoy. Happy cooking!
