Yuzu Juice
The process of creating this yuzu jelly involves traditional artisanal techniques. The freshly squeezed juice of the hand-picked yuzu fruits, is combined with sugar and natural pectin in a recipe designed to achieve the perfect balance of sweet and tart. The mixture is then cooked in small batches in a traditional cauldron, preserving the yuzu's natural flavours and aromas.
Appearance and Flavour
The resulting yuzu jelly is opaque, with a lovely smooth texture. The flavour is fresh and full of the vibrant citrus notes of the yuzu fruit. The accompanying acidity and tanginess balance the sweetness of the jelly perfectly.
This versatile condiment can elevate a wide range of dishes. Serve it as a spread on toast, pastries, and scones, to add a zesty kick to breakfast or afternoon tea. See How To Use for more ideas!
