Yes it is finally yuzu season in Japan!
I have already hunted down my first yuzu, which I bought from a small fruit and vegetable vendor that I passed in one of the backstreets of Shibuya.
In my yuzu-high excitement, I rushed it home and baked a cake. I followed a simple lemon drizzle recipe, but substituted lemon for yuzu.

Since that first encounter, there have been yuzus spotted in Maruetsu Petit.
It seems the market price for yuzu in Tokyo this year is between 200-250¥ for one large yuzu. If you find them cheaper please let me know!
