We don't know what 'ebisume' is. It could be a number of different things. You need to give us more information and context.

Just a guess - but you could be referring to this special brand of kombu no tsukudani (kelp) by Oguraya Yamamoto of Osaka.

I see!
I haven't heard of this brand, but I read through the info and it sounded very nice. This is something you eat with rice. You can chop them into fine pieces and mix with cucumber slices as well, but it is best to eat with rice.
It is seaweed, that had been cooked with soy sauce and sugar and sake and mirin, and then dried. It is salty. The product has got some kind of governmental prize twice, so that the quality is promised, I think.
Why don't you give it a try?

Odanta: You are spot on!! I am staying in Osaka (but will visit Kyoto for a day) and was recommended this to try...I came across an article about this brand but it was very clear what it was...just a picture of something square on rice..hmm, interesting, I can think of a few things I can eat it with now.
Is it a typical Osaka food or can I also get it in Kyoto? Thanks!
