Instructions

  1. Rub coarse unrefined salt to clean the surface of the yuzu fruits. Wash the salt off under running water. 
  2. Remove any scars and spots off the fruit with a sharp knife. 
  3. Cut each yuzu into 4 pieces.
  4. Remove all seeds and trim the centre edge of the pulp. *2
  5. Slice all yuzu rinds thinly. 
  6. Place one-third of sliced yuzu in the bottom of a clean jar *3
  7. Place one-third of rock sugar over Yuzu in the jar.
  8. Repeat the process twice more time
  9. Keep it in cool place for 4-5 days. The rock sugar will start to melt in a couple of days.
  10. Stir at least once a day. Refrigerate after the rock sugar melt. 
  11. To have a cup of yuzu tea, place 2 tablespoons of Yuzu Cha in a cup and pour hot water and stir. 

Notes

  • *4-5 days of resting time is not included in cooking time. 
  • *1 ratio of yuzu and sugar is 1:1
  • *2 Yuzu is quite dry fruit. The yuzu I used this time was particularly dry. If it is not dry, squeeze out juice ( add it later to the container) before you slice the linds. 
  • *3 sterilise the glass jar by boiling beforehand.
