House Yuzu Kosho Paste 40g

Yuzu Kosho (柚子胡椒) is a classic Japanese condiment paste made from fresh yuzu citrus peel, green chillies, and salt. This aromatic paste delivers a uniquely complex flavour profile that is bright, tart, spicy, and savoury all at once, capturing the fragrant essence of the yuzu fruit. It is a versatile ingredient used in Japanese cuisine to add a powerful flavour kick to a wide range of dishes. Simply add a small amount to marinades for fish or chicken, mix it into dipping sauces for sashimi or tempura, or stir it into noodle broths like ramen and udon for an instant layer of complexity. A tiny dab can also be used to season grilled meats, vegetables, or even add a surprising twist to salad dressings and cocktails. This concentrated paste is a staple in many Japanese kitchens for its ability to instantly brighten and season food with its distinctive citrus heat. It is an ideal pantry item for those looking to explore authentic Japanese flavours beyond soy sauce and miso.
