Citrus Hystrix Net volumes and weights: 100ml / 5g / 0.17oz €1,640.00/kg Origin: Madagascar Description: Kaffir lime is a citrus fruit native to the Sunda archipelago in the Moluccas Sea. It is the name of the tree and its fruit. It was introduced into the Indian Ocean, to Mauritius, by Pierre Poivre at the end of the 18th century. The product we offer you is nothing other than the leaves of this fruit tree. Why use the leaves when you can use the zest, you might ask? Well, it's simply because the zest can sometimes add bitterness or too much aromatic power. The leaves have a lighter, finer taste in the mouth and are completely devoid of bitterness. Directions for use: We recommend using it as a marinade or infusion to fully express its flavor.It will perfectly accompany all your seafood products. Cook it with monkfish en papillote, on a baked salmon fillet or even a shellfish ceviche...It will be surprising on white meats like pork or veal but also poultry, inside a roast chicken for example. Kaffir lime leaves can be used in desserts, in the form of ganache or in your fresh fruit salads. Make yourself a delicious lemon infusion!
