Black Lime

$9.99

Black Lime is a versatile ingredient with a famously savory and tart flavor. This variety comes from a family farm in Guatemala. The limes are sun-dried, then ground into an easy-to-use powder. Common in Persian cooking, Black Lime is also great on roasted meat or vegetables, in stews and anywhere you'd use lime juice. It's also a good alternative to Makrut / lime leaves in southeast Asian dishes.
