Preguntas frecuentes
What is yuzu and what flavour do these spheres bring?
Yuzu is a Japanese citrus fruit highly prized in haute cuisine for its complex aroma, somewhere between lemon, mandarin and grapefruit. These spheres, about 5 mm in diameter, flood the palate with a delicious yuzu juice flavour as they gently burst in the mouth.
How should they be stored?
They are shelf-stable and need no refrigeration until opened; once opened, keep them in the fridge and eat them within a few days.
Are they vegan?
Yes, they are vegan and contain no gluten, GMOs, preservatives, colourings or added flavourings.
Why are they slightly more expensive than the other flavoured spheres?
Yuzu is a more costly citrus fruit than the other fruits in the range, which is reflected in a price of €4.00 compared with €3.85 for other flavoured spheres such as strawberry or lime & lemon.
Which dishes are they recommended for?
They are perfect for raw fish and ceviches, sushi, signature cocktails or citrus desserts, bringing the sophistication of yuzu together with the surprise effect of spherification.
What does “drained weight” mean on the jar?
The spheres are packed in a preserving liquid that helps keep them in good condition; the “drained weight” (50 g) is the actual weight of the pearls once that liquid is removed, i.e. the usable amount of product you receive.
What is reverse spherification and why is Spherika an expert in it?
It is a molecular gastronomy technique that encapsulates a liquid inside a thin gelled membrane, creating a pearl with a “liquid centre” that bursts in the mouth. Pescaviar became a benchmark in this technique in 2009 when it acquired Just Gourmet Food, a pioneer in industrialising it, and has since been one of the few companies able to offer both direct and reverse spherification on a commercial scale.
How is it shipped if, unlike caviar or roe, it doesn't need to be kept cold?
Although this product is shelf-stable and doesn't depend on the cold chain, Pescaviar S.L. ships it with the same careful logistics as the rest of the range: orders to mainland Spain placed before 11:00 (Monday to Thursday) arrive in 24–48 h, and to the Balearic Islands in 48–72 h; we do not ship to the Canary Islands. If it is combined in the same order with refrigerated products, the whole parcel travels chilled to protect those products too.
Can I return this product if I change my mind?
As it is a food product sealed for hygiene and safety reasons, it cannot be returned once opened. If the packaging arrives damaged or in poor condition, or there is a mistake with the order, Pescaviar S.L. handles it as an incident, with a replacement or refund, provided it is reported with photos to general@pescaviar.com within 24 hours of delivery.
Since when has this flavour been part of the Spherika range?
It was not part of the original 2010 launch (strawberry, lime & lemon, chipotle chilli, passion fruit, soy sauce and balsamic vinegar of Modena); it is a later addition with which Spherika brought a more sophisticated citrus into its range.
