Judges Comments:

Wow! That's a bitter, zingy and striking flavour. We loved it. Unusual combining citrus tang and bitterness so very well. Delicious.

An intriguing flavour - part lime, part preserved lemon and with smoky back notes. A bit sumac-y and really thought provoking, with lots of different flavour notes. No doubt a rewarding ingredient to use.

Further seasoning wisdom:

From a family farm in Alta Verapaz, Guatemala, ripening limes are harvested and then sun-dried causing an oxidation process which transforms them into black and savoury fruits. They are a popular ingredient of Persian cuisines. 

This pot of black lime is jam packed with a savory and tart flavour. It carries aromas of citrus peel and sauvignon blanc. An absolutely unique and unmissable sensory experience. 

Sprinkle black lime over your roasted meat and vegetables, and dust it into your stews. It makes a fabulous replacement for fresh lime juice or makrut/kaffir lime in any recipe. It makes any fish dish that extra bit delectable. 

If you like cocktails you can use it as a garnish, especially with sours and margaritas.
