Best Answer

Umeboshi = Ume (Japanese apricot/plum fruit) that has been pickled by salting and leaving in the sun and later is packed into some container.The umeboshi I have was mixed with shiso leaves also which add color and I guess some flavor. Umeboshi tastes pretty salty and sour. I think it's one of those things you really like or really dislike. They have a reputation for being good for your health.

What is the meaning of the word hoshi?

'Hoshi' means "star." "Hoshii" means 'want (a noun).'The word 'hoshi' may also be added to the end of a word to kind of mean 'dried' or 'cured', as seen in the word 'umeboshi' which means 'pickled/cured plum' in Japanese. The 'h' becomes voiced and turns into a 'b' in this word.
