À propos de cet ingrédient
Small green sour citrus (Citrus sudachi) produced in Tokushima Prefecture (>95% of national volume). Distinguished from kabosu and yuzu by its small size (~30g), sharper acidity, and intensely aromatic peel. Used in matsutake mushroom dashi (its classical pairing), Japanese udon and soba, ponzu sauces, and as a fine-dining garnish over sashimi. The peel oil is increasingly used in cosmetic and fragrance applications. A Tokushima Prefecture protected regional brand.
