What it is

Yuzu juice comes from the yuzu, a tart citrus fruit native to East Asia. It is known for its distinctive floral aroma and tart, complex flavor, often described as a cross between a grapefruit and a mandarin orange. The juice is extracted from the fruit's pulp and rind.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use yuzu juice primarily as a flavoring agent, adding a bright, citrusy note to a wide range of products. It is commonly found in sauces, dressings, beverages, baked goods, and desserts, where it can also provide acidity.

Health notes

Yuzu juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food ingredient. It is a source of vitamin C and antioxidants. JECFA has evaluated yuzu and found it to be safe for consumption. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming yuzu juice in typical amounts found in food.

Allergen info

Yuzu is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
