What is Yuzu?

Yuzu (柚子) is an aromatic East Asian citrus fruit with an especially important place in Japanese cooking. The fruit is usually yellow when fully ripe and resembles a small, somewhat bumpy grapefruit or mandarin. Its flavor and fragrance are often described as a combination of lemon, mandarin, and grapefruit, although yuzu has a distinctive aroma all its own.

An image of yuzu Unlike oranges or mandarins, yuzu contains relatively little juice and many seeds. For this reason, the highly fragrant peel is just as valuable as the juice. Both are used to add bright citrus flavor without requiring large amounts of fruit.

Yuzu appears in sauces, ponzu, dressings, marinades, soups, desserts, beverages, jams, syrups, spice blends, and fermented seasonings. One famous example is yuzu kosho (柚子胡椒), a powerful Japanese condiment traditionally made from yuzu peel, chili peppers, and salt. Yuzu peel is also commonly included in seasonings such as shichimi.

Like other citrus fruits, yuzu contains vitamin C and aromatic plant compounds, particularly in its juice and peel. However, the nutritional value of a finished yuzu product depends on how it is prepared and how much is eaten.

Yuzu is prized less for sweetness than for its extraordinary fragrance and ability to brighten other flavors. Even a small amount can add a fresh, floral citrus character to sauces, seafood, meats, vegetables, sweets, and drinks.
