A soft and fragrant cake for a gourmet Japanese touch

We have kept very good friends from Chicago: an American-Japanese couple who came to visit us in France and which my husband sees regularly when he moves professionally in Chicago. At each meeting we used to exchange small gifts, generally food, from our countries. This time, Haruka brought me a jar of Yuzu jam, a Japanese citrus with tangy and floral notes and offered me a cake recipe to use it. This recipe is very easy to make with gluten -free flour and remains melting in the mouth. The yuzu, a flagship ingredient of Japanese cuisine, gives this cake a unique freshness , between tangerine and grapefruit. 100% gluten-free and naturally scented recipe , for a gourmet break from Japan!
