Sudachi Soba



Sudachi Soba


Sudachi is a Japanese citrus fruit in season during Fall. It has a gently sour flavor similar to a lime. Eating fresh sudachi with cold soba is an enjoyable way to end a hot Fall day.


スダチそば

スダチ(酢橘)も秋が旬です。徳島県はスダチの名産地として有名ですが、日本で流通するもののうちの98%を担っています。現地では果実の他、お酒やジュースなどの加工品もたくさん作られています。香りの良いスダチのスライスを冷たいお蕎麦と一緒に頂くと、爽やかな秋の実りの幸せを感じます。
