VERJUS WHITE FUSION

This particular brand of Verjus is manufactured by Fusion in Californian. We carry both the red grape and white grape version. Verjus has very ancient traditions in French cooking going back to the the Middle Ages, before vinegar was discovered. It is sweeter and lighter. It can be used to heighten the flavor of a poaching or braising liquid. If you want a softer vinaigrette flavor for delicate greens, use Verjus. Verjus also will give a nice counterpoint to white sauces. Fusion makes the Verjus Rouge and Blanc from vinifera grapes harvested and crushed in the mid summer, when the sugar level is low and the acid level is high. Some feel that Verjus makes things like salads and certain sauces much more wine friendly. Both come in 25.35 oz bottles.
