Description

Terre Exotique Dried Black Limes are a staple of Persian cooking. Made from green limes which are soaked and then boiled in salt brine, they are then sun-dried to give them their intense aroma and sour citrus flavour. An essential ingredient for slow cooked Middle-Eastern dishes. 

Use whole and add to a chicken tagine or Persian fish stew, or ground in a spice mill and infuse into soups or as a seasoning for oven-roasted vegetables.

About Terre Exotique

Terre Exotique works directly with hundreds of specialist farmers and producers around the world – to bring the very best peppers, spices and salts to our tables. The company was founded by Erwann de Kerros, a Breton and seasoned traveller. After tasting pepper in the Penja plantation in Cameroon, Kerros yearned to try other specialist peppers and spices – and Terre Exotique was born.

The company works closely with farmers to preserve natural habitats, and to ensure a sustainable income for local communities. Each spice is carefully packed in tins or glass jars – with no plastic. The metal tins preserve the flavours and aroma of your spice, by protecting them from sunlight. So the ingredients stay at their best for longer.

Ingredients: Citrus latifolia.
