What is Yuzu?

Yuzu is a citrus fruit native to Japan – it’s more or less a cross between a lemon and a mandarin. The taste of the fruit is more subtle as it’s less acidic but with more umami notes. It is often used to add a splash of flavor in salads and drinks and is a prominent ingredient in many popular sauces such as ponzu. For a creamy citrus dressing, simply mix the juice with mayonnaise!  Looking for a new way to prepare your rice? Try this: Spanish rice seasoning.
