<\/a><\/div>\n

My youngest kiddo and I absolutely love yuzu.\u00a0 It’s kind of like a cross between lemon and grapefruit in flavor.\u00a0 There is a softly bitter aromatic quality to it (like grapefruit), with floral notes like orange blossom.\u00a0 We especially love candied yuzu peel, having first tried it from a Japanese subscription box.\u00a0 Yuzu is really difficult to get in the states, almost impossible fresh, because it cannot be imported and is only seasonally found from California.\u00a0 But the CA company does sell bottled juice<\/a>, syrup<\/a> and peel<\/a>, and you can find other yuzu syrups and purees<\/a> online as well.\u00a0 Just by itself, yuzu doesn’t pack quite the pucker of lemon or lime and since this is very much like a key lime pie, I did add a little lemon juice for some added tartness to meet that expectation.\u00a0 I do prefer the flavor of the rich biscuits for the crust, but graham crackers work just as well!\u00a0 I tried a couple different combinations for the filling and this is what turned out our favorite.\u00a0 If there is a little leftover filling that won’t fit in the pie, just cook it on low in a small pot until it bubbles and thickens like lemon curd, then chill.\u00a0 Yummy and creamy.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

If you don’t need that extra zip of tartness, using all yuzu juice will still have a decent citrus pucker, just not the sharp zip that lemon juice gives.\u00a0 I just like my citrus assertively tangy; nothing worse than a flat tasting key lime or lemon dessert for me.\u00a0 That said, the flavor and tang will mellow overnight!<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Yuzu Pie<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Crust:
1\u00bd cups rich biscuit or graham cracker crumbs
4 tbsp salted butter, melted
\u00bc cup brown sugar (2-3 tbsp for graham crumbs)<\/p>\n

Filling:
\u2154<\/span><\/span> cup yuzu Juice<\/a>, syrup<\/a>, or puree<\/a> (or a combination)
\u2153 cup lemon juice (add some of the zest if using fresh lemon!)
24 oz sweetened condensed milk (just under two cans)
4 large egg yolks<\/p>\n

Whipped Cream:
\u00be cup heavy cream
3 tbsp powdered sugar\u00a0<\/p>\n

Optional lemon zest or candied lemon\/yuzu peel<\/a> for garnish <\/i><\/p>\n

For the crust:<\/i> <\/p>\n

Combine melted butter, crumbs and sugar until fully moistened. Press the crumbs into the bottom and around the sides of a 9″ pie tin.<\/p>\n

Bake for 10-12 minutes at 350\u00ba F and remove from oven.\u00a0 Crust should be just starting to turn golden.<\/p>\n

For the filling:<\/i><\/p>\n

Whisk the sweetened condensed milk, juices, and egg yolks together
\n(or use a blender or electric mixer). If using fresh lemon juice, add some of the zest from the lemon. Pour into warm
\ncrust.\u00a0 (You may have a few tablespoons extra.)<\/p>\n

Bake the pie for 18\u201320 minutes or until just a little jiggly in the
\ncenter. It should be mostly set.\u00a0 Remove from the oven and allow to cool
\ncompletely on a wire rack. Once cool, cover and chill for at least 3
\nhours, preferably overnight (and up to 3 days) before serving.<\/p>\n

When ready to serve, whip the heavy cream and sugar on high until stiff peaks form.<\/p>\n

Serve slices with a whipped cream dollops or piped border.\u00a0 Garnish with candied peel if desired.<\/p>\n
