Ponzu is a Japanese citrus-based seasoning traditionally combining tangy citrus with savory depth. This
vinaigrette adapts that balance for salads and cold dishes, using orange, lemon and yuzu juices alongside mirin
and rice vinegar. SHO – Concentrated Dark Stock is incorporated as a flavor enhancer, bringing concentrated
umami and rounded savory notes without simmering or reducing the dressing.
