Tentang bahan ini
Sour citrus (Citrus sphaerocarpa) almost exclusively produced in Oita Prefecture (>95% of national volume). Harvested green for the signature sharp-acid juice; turns yellow in late season. Used as a sashimi accent, in vinegar-and-soy dressings, in clear soups, and increasingly in Western fine-dining as a yuzu-alternative citrus. The juice profile is rounder and less aromatic than yuzu, with higher juice yield per fruit. Distinct from sudachi (smaller, sharper) and yuzu (more aromatic, lower yield).
