Yuzu Vs Citron
Hi -
I have seen statements that the Yuzu fruit and the Citron fruit (Som sa
in Thailand, I believe) are the same, and other statements that they are
different.
If anyone knows authoritatively, I'd really like to know.
Beyond that question, does anyone know if their taste is comparable? I
tend to think so, but I am unsure.
I bought some 'Citron Tea' at a Korean supermarket at the weekend. Its a
sauce of Citron peel, fruit, and honey, and Koreans use a couple of
spoonfuls in hot water as a tea. For me, though, it tastes like the most
delicious, exotic-tasting marmalade I ever had. I added some to a sauce
I was making for some scallops, and it was great.
Anyway, any info appreciated.
Ian
