Green Yuzu Kosho (Ao Kosho) is an exceptional - and exceptionally spicy - Japanese condiment that makes a lasting impression.

With a slightly coarse texture, similar to pesto, Yuzu Kosho leaves a distinctly sour/salty/spicy flavor lingering on the palate.

A specialty of the cuisine of Kyushu, a region in southeastern Japan, Yuzu Kosho is made from three ingredients only: yuzu, a prized and very tart Japanese citrus fruit, chile peppers and salt.

Yuzu Kosho comes in two varieties: Red Yuzu Kosho (Aka Kosho), made with red chiles, yuzu zest & salt, and Green Yuzu Kosho (Ao Kosho), made with green chiles, yuzu zest & salt.

How To Use Yuzu Kosho:
Yuzu kosho makes an excellent condiment, used sparingly straight from the jar. Add flavor and heat to Asian dishes like tofu, noodles, sashimi, sushi, dipping sauces, hot-pots and stir frys.

But Yuzu Kosho is not just for Asian-style dishes. Use Yuzu Kosho as a rub on pork, beef or fish. Add a dash to marinades, salad dressings, soups and sauces. Incredible with poultry - add it to your favorite Buffalo wings recipe for a powerful punch of spicy-citrusy flavor!
