Lime Leaves

Lime Leaves

£1.99

Freeze-dried to preserve the stunning colour and scent of the kaffir lime leaves. Simply crush in your hands to release the oils and add to a Thai curry paste, soup or curry. The lime leaves will lose their colour over time so if you are storing for any significant period of time store in an airtight, dark container.

The leaves have a beautiful scent similar to that from the Kaffir lime itself, the juice of which is used to scent girls' hair in the country areas of Thailand.

Uses

Many uses in Thai cooking - curry pastes and soups in particular. Shred the lime leaves finely and scatter over a Thai-style salad seasoned with a dressing of fish sauce, lime juice, sugar and chilli. The ground leaf can be added to fish cakes, marinades and rubs, try stirring a little into mayonnaise and adding some garlic and chilli to make an interesting dip to serve with Thai food.
