Aigamo Grilled with Spices is a dish made by Takumi Aldini and Isami Aldini against Sōma Yukihira and Megumi Tadokoro on the first day of the Tōtsuki Friendship and Rapport Training Camp.
Description[]
While most of the classmates defaulted to fish, Takumi and Isami chose an aigamo duck. Though the sauce that accompanied it was initially thought to be salsa verde, a common Italian sauce, it is actually made out of uruka (salted sweetfish offal), perilla, chives, and yuzu pepper paste. They have cooked a Japanese version of salsa verde with instant uruka as the base.

Real Facts[]
Yuzukoshō (柚子胡椒, also yuzugoshō) is a type of Japanese seasoning. It is a paste made from chili peppers, yuzu peel, and salt, which is then allowed to ferment. It is usually used as a condiment for nabemono dishes, miso soup, and sashimi. The most famous types of yuzukoshō come from Kyushu, where it is a local specialty.[1]
