Yuzu is one of Japan most famous Citrus fruit, but actually there exist several varieties of yuzu: green yuzu with a thin skin, orange yuzu with a thick skin, all used at different seasons and for different recipes. The peels of orange yuzu are particularly delicious and candied it’s one of my weak points! It’s not always easy to find some natural ones, recently at the local shop in Koganei and in Isumi they have some, so I couldn’t resist. And I made a chocolate chips and yuzu cake for breakfast using the basic recipe of the pound cake, replacing the sultanas by the chocolate chips and the candied yuzu peel. A perfect start for the week! Have a good week!
