LIME

LIME is a citrus fruit characterized by its tart and refreshing flavor profile, typically featuring a bright green hue. Grown in tropical and subtropical regions, its primary producers include Mexico, Brazil, and the United States, where the warm climate enhances its acidity and aroma.

Ideal for culinary uses, LIME can be utilized in beverages, dressings, marinades, and desserts. To maximize freshness and flavor, store at room temperature or refrigerate, and squeeze just before use. Pairing with ingredients like fish, herbs, or fruits can elevate dishes.
