FLAVOUR
This product is a great palate cleanser for rich flavoured dishes. It is strong, punchy but refreshing so no need to put a great deal on a dish. Best to serve with bbq pork poppers, teriyaki wings, poke bowl. Truffle teriyaki sauce will also go well with this product.
Due to its bright pink colour, they are wonderful finisher as garnish.
