We are the only certified organic Yuzu grower in NZ ...
RIPENING YELLOW YUZU - STARTING TO HARVEST NOW
These are Yuzu fruit coming into full ripeness and the peel is predominately yellow with slight washes of green.
Ripening Yuzu is brightly aromatic, the peel is loaded with highly aromatic yuzu essential oils, and has a higher juice yield, softer peel.
Japanese make Yuzucha with ripening peel. Yuzucha is simply cut Yuzu peel and sugar 1:1 ratio, mixed together then packed into jars. Can be left at RT for 3-4 days to kickstart natural fermentation then placed in fridge to cold cure for 3-6 months before using.
Ripening Yuzu makes the most fantastic Yuzu marmalade. I don't have enough space to say what else you can do with ripening Yuzu, but Kiwis are so innovative making Yuzu into something fantastic.
How to store fresh Yuzu fruit: Store in fridge, place fruit in a paper bag and put in the vegetable bin. But don't store too long, best to get into action and use.
To hasten/increase ripeness level, leave in a bowl at room temperature (RT).
