You hooked me, can’t resist the recipe challenge :

Caramelized onions (sweet), sun-dried tomatoes (sour), roquette salad or kale (bitter), olives (salty), and mushrooms or tempeh (umami)

I’m hungry now

Tomatoes already have umami. I would say olive are good but could really place with anchovies or capers depending on if you favour those. They are good too. Anchovies has the advantage of packing salty and umami in one.

Now find me a place that caramelizes onions rather than sauteeing them into charred mush and calling it caramelized
