Dried Black Limes
Description:
An Arabian friend said, to stay healthy, you need black limes. You have to cook a tea, then you will get 100 years old - at least!
In contrast to other types of lime, the real limes have only the size of 3-4 cm and contain much more seeds.
The origin of the lime is Southeast Asia, where the kaffir lime is also native and other lime varieties grow wild or cultivated.
Use in the kitchen:
In the kitchens of the Gulf States as well as in Iranian cuisine, dried limes belong to the repertoire of important characteristic spices.
These limes replace the acidity of lemons with a very characteristic note. Ideal to flavor fish dishes, to give them a refreshing, slightly tangy taste and a smooth smoky aroma. Also a great use for any rice dishes.
Use in the patisserie:
Simply soak limes cold milk or liquid cream overnight and process to cream, ice cream or a sauce the next day.
A fantastic taste for pastries, compotes or for smoked, sweet rice.
Taste:
Sour, citrusy, smoky, earthy, caramel flavor.
