Yuzu Kosho Citrus Hot Sauce – What’s Japanin’, 5 fl oz

What’s Japanin’ brings yuzu kosho, sudachi and persimmon vinegar together in a Japanese-inspired citrus hot sauce. White honey balances the tart elements, while sansho pepper contributes an aromatic, tingling accent. The maker’s current online recipe names golden cayenne as the chili. This sauce is a choice for citrus-led meals and for people who want a different character from garlic, smoke or tropical pineapple.

The maker recommends sushi, nigiri, fish, wagyu, soups and izakaya-style dishes. Begin with a few drops on a single bite before using it as a drizzle. It can also accompany a rice bowl or grilled fish at the table. The honey is an ingredient rather than evidence of a sugar-free product, so check the actual bottle if a particular dietary restriction matters.
