Yuja cheong, a popular Korean drink base in winter, is made by drying yuzu peel in an air fryer and letting it sit in sugar with the fruit. Stir it into hot water for a drink or spread it on bread at breakfast.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Dry the peel

15 min

Cut the yuzu peel into thin strips and dry it in an air fryer at low heat for 15 minutes.

2

Chop the fruit

10 min

Thinly slice the yuzu fruit and remove the seeds.

3

Mix with the sugar

5 min

Combine the dried peel, chopped fruit, sugar, and lemon juice in a jar.

4

Let it rest

15 min

Let the jar sit at room temperature for 15 minutes and mix well, then store it in the refrigerator.

Reminder

Do not overlap the peels in the air fryer; otherwise, they will not dry evenly.
