What exactly is ponzu?<\/h2>\n\n

Ponzu is not only a highlight of Japanese cuisine, but also a treat for the palate. This enchanting, citrus-based sauce delights with its refreshing acidity and its light, clear consistency.<\/p>\n\n

The variant Ponzu Sh\u014dyu <\/em>or Ponzu J\u014dyu<\/em>, to which soy sauce is added, gives the sauce a darker colour and a deeper flavour, so it is often simply known as Ponzu.<\/p>\n\n

It is interesting to note that the name “Ponzu” <\/em>derives from the Old Dutch word “pons”, which means “punch” \u2013 bringing to mind a delicious drink made from mixed fruit juices. The sauce\u2019s tangy flavour inspired the use of the character “su”<\/em>, which symbolises “vinegar”.<\/p>\n\n

Making your own ponzu sauce:<\/h2>\n\n

Making ponzu is a little ritual in itself. You combine freshly squeezed lemon juice with soy sauce, Mirin and dried Katsuobushi flakes, as well as aromatic Kombu, and leave everything to infuse overnight in the fridge.<\/p>\n\n

Tip: The juice of a freshly squeezed lemon gives the sauce its distinctive freshness<\/em>. Feel free to try other citrus fruits such as yuzu, sudachi, grapefruit or lime. A real treat!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n

Once the mixture has infused sufficiently, strain it to remove the fish flakes and seaweed. By the way, you can use the leftover bits to make homemade Onigiri<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n
