Now it's taller than the fence and gives us a lot of fruits.
Yuzu is a citrus tree originally from China and frequently used in Japanese cuisine.
My favorite dish is Yuuan-yaki (marinate fillet of fish in soy sauce, mirin and slice of yuzu for a couple of days, and grill): I cook this dish almost every week during the season, but there are still a lot of fruits left even after we give them away to neighbors and friends, so I make Yuzu marmalade, too.
These are soft cookies spiced up with sweet aroma and a tiny bit of bitterness from Yuzu marmalade.
I usually like to have sweets with tea, but if I am to pair these cookies with wine...probably Gewurztraminer?
Unfortunately I didn't have a bottle of Gewurztraminer so instead I opened 2012 Hattenheimer Riesling from Rheingau, Kabinett.
By the way, I'm not a big fan of sweets + sweet wine pairing, somehow.
Riesling was a little bit too acidic for the cookies, but the pairing wasn't so bad.
Happy ending for delicious cookies!
