Lime is a hybrid citrus fruit that, although originating in Asia, has found very fertile ground in Sicily. It is best known for its less sour flavour than the lemon and for its zest rich in essential oils, which makes it very popular in cosmetics. The fruits are small, oval or round, with a thin skin.
Description Organic Sicilian Lime
One of the strengths of the Sicilian lime is undoubtedly the varied and different uses that can be made of it both in the kitchen and in many other areas:
- The peel is edible, as our citrus fruits are completely organic;
- In terms of food, this lime is used to flavour dishes, to give that extra touch of flavour to dishes that might otherwise be bland (such as fish or grilled meat) and for many other recipes with a full-bodied and intense flavour (such as mojitos);
- If consumed habitually, moreover, lime will be an excellent ally for your psychophysical health. This particular type of citrus fruit, in fact, is a natural antioxidant, rich in minerals and vitamins that has been shown to boost the immune system and help prevent ageing, reduce the risk of heart disease and other health-related problems;
- The Sicilian lime is also widely used in the beauty and wellness sector. In fact, its distinctive scent is widely used in perfumes (personal and room fragrances).
