A clear, floral-citrusy vinegar — between lime and mandarin — for fish, seafood, and sorbets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"speakable-definition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYuzu Vinegar\u003c\/strong\u003e by Belberry is a clear, fruity fruit vinegar from the Royal Selection line, produced in Kortrijk, West Flanders. In this 200 ml bottle, you'll find the meeting of two worlds: a white wine vinegar from Belgium and the juice of Yuzu, that yellow citrus fruit which grows on slender trees in Kyushu, Japan, and has been perfuming kitchens, teas, and winter baths there for centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBetween Lime, Mandarin, and a Subtle Bitter Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aroma of Yuzu is distinctive and complex, and the vinegar carries it well: notes of citrus blossoms, a hint of grapefruit, less acidic than lemon, less sweet than mandarin. Yuzu contains only about two-thirds of the acidity of a lemon, and one kilogram of fruit yields only about 100 ml of juice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the palate, the Japanese Yuzu Vinegar is clear and vibrant, with a subtle bitter trace that enhances its aperitif character. Floral, fresh, gently spicy — a vinegar that is inconspicuous in the bottle but shines on the plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWe enjoy it with fish, poultry, and sorbet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYuzu vinegar loves the lighter dishes in cuisine: with raw fish for a ponzu-like note, with seafood, with pan-fried salmon or chicken. A few drops over sautéed scallops or sashimi elevate the dish to a new level without overpowering it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe also love the vinegar in desserts: a splash over lemon sorbet, mango quark, or a coconut panna cotta brings a fresh depth that you don't typically get from lime. Our tip: a teaspoon of Yuzu vinegar in a glass of Prosecco or tonic with ice – a lovely aperitif for balmy evenings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe particularly like the vinaigrette for rocket, fennel, and orange segments: three parts mild olive oil, one part Yuzu vinegar, a hint of honey, salt, and pepper. Shake before use, store in a cool, dark place after opening – this keeps the citrus aroma vibrant for a long time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKortrijk, Two Generations and an Unusual Citrus Fruit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelberry Fine Food Creators is located in Kortrijk, West Flanders, where André Vandererfven took over a small gourmet business from the late 19th century in 1956. His son Thierry has been expanding the Royal Selection line since 1990 — jams, fruit sauces, ketchups, and fruit vinegars, all without preservatives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYuzu itself is an ancient fruit from the Yangtze Basin in China, which arrived in Japan about 1,300 years ago. Today, the majority grows in the prefectures of Kochi and Tokushima, with the harvest running from October to January. In Europe, fresh Yuzu is a rarity; the price per kilogram often exceeds 50 euros. That Belberry brings this fruit into a white wine vinegar is a beautiful little culinary bridge between Belgium and Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe citrus jams, which Queen Paola particularly likes, have earned Belberry the title of purveyor to the Belgian royal family. Quite an achievement.
