Description
Our Organic Limes are NASAA Certified Organic and proudly Australian-grown. Each lime weighs between 65-100g and delivers an incredible burst of flavor and nutrition. Known for their high vitamin C content, limes are also rich in unique flavonoids and limonoids, which support detoxifying enzyme activity in the liver and provide anti-carcinogenic and antibiotic benefits.
A member of the citrus family, limes are an exceptionally popular and versatile fruit. Their complex flavor surpasses that of lemons, making them a staple in many recipes. Lime zest is often used in desserts, marinades, and savory dishes, while lime juice adds a refreshing tang to beverages, dressings, and sauces.
Did You Know?
Limes were once vital for sailors, who received lime juice daily in the 1790s to prevent scurvy. Their impressive vitamin C levels make them an essential addition to a healthy diet today.
Storage Tips
Unlike conventional citrus, organic limes do not have a wax or fungicide coating. While this ensures they remain chemical-free, it also means they require proper storage. To maintain their freshness, keep organic limes in the refrigerator. At room temperature, they may spoil more quickly, especially in a fruit bowl.
