uzu is an East Asian citrus fruit whose fresh aroma can spruce up the most boring dish. One way to make use of its invigorating flavour is in a salad dressing. Unless your local Asian grocer stocks fresh fruit, feel free to substitute it with a more readily available yuzu vinegar. Lime is an okay substitute but the flavour just won't be the same.
- 2 tbsps yuzu juice or yuzu vinegar
- 2 tbsps soy sauce
- 1 tbsp mirin
- optional: 4 tbsps vegetable oil - plain sunflower or, for an extra punch, sesame
Shake the ingredients vigorously in a jar until completely homogeneous. Pour over salad right before serving.
