Citrus

Citrus is a great all-year round fruit with many different varieties popping in and out of season. It has endless uses, particularly for seasoning and flavouring different foods; from a simple squeeze of fresh juice to a sauce such as a fish Veloute, a hollandaise sauce or beurre blanc. By drying and grinding the zest to a powder and mixing it with Maldon sea salt it can be used as a sharp, tangy seasoning for fish and shellfish like pan-fried scallops, red mullet and John Dory. It can also be used for chicken, duck and guinea fowl. Citrus is commonly found in Asian cuisine, particularly in Thai and Vietnamese dishes.
