How to Use Yuzu Juice

Yuzu is a bumpy yellow-green Japanese citrus fruit that has a thick rind and is full of seeds. The juice from a yuzu fruit is commercially extracted and available in gourmet shops and Japanese markets across the U.S. Yuzu juice is used in traditional Japanese cooking, as well as in traditional American cuisine. Its intense citrus taste is an exotic substitute for recipes that call for lemons, limes or oranges.

Instructions

    • 1

      Substitute yuzu juice for lemon or lime juice in desserts such as lemon pound cake and lemon tarts. Mix with simple syrup and water if needed.

    • 2

      Use yuzu juice in place of lemon or lime juice in savory dishes such as salsas or seafood dishes. Mix yuzu juice in marinades and sauces for an added citrus kick.

    • 3

      Mix yuzu juice, simple syrup and water to the desired taste as a substitute for orange juice in a recipe.

    • 4

      Replace lemon, lime or orange juice with yuzu juice in drinks and cocktails. Mix yuzu juice with simple syrup and water to taste to make drinks such as the Huck Yu and a yuzu version of the Lemon Drop.

    • 5

      Use bottled yuzu juice in place of fresh yuzu in Japanese cooking. Use a little more than the recipe requires for recipes that showcase the yuzu citrus flavor.
