This item was last sold on : 12/20/24
Description/Taste
Limes are small in size, measuring 5-7 centimeters in height and 4-6 centimeters in diameter, and are globular to oblong in shape. The rind, also known as the peel, is thin, smooth and slightly bumpy with many small oil glands visible across the surface, and glossy green transitioning into a yellow hue with maturity. Underneath the rind, the flesh is soft, juicy, pale green, seedless or may contain a few small inedible seeds, and is divided into 10-12 sections by thin white membranes. Limes, depending on the variety, have an aromatic, floral scent with an acidic, tangy, and bright flavor with notes of pine and spice.
Seasons/Availability
Limes are available year-round.
Current Facts
Limes are small, sour hybrid fruits that grow on trees or shrubs that can reach up to five meters in height and are botanically a part of the Rutaceae or citrus family. Native to the tropical climates of Asia, there are two main types of Limes including the Mexican lime, Citrus aurantifolia, and the Persian lime, Citrus latifolia. Mexican limes, also known as Key limes and West Indian limes, are smaller than Persian limes and are known for their floral forward aroma and taste. Persian limes, also known as Tahiti limes and Bearss limes, are the most commonly found variety in grocery stores in the United States and are favored for their mild, acidic taste.
Nutritional Value
Limes are an excellent source of vitamin C as well as a good source of dietary fiber. They also contain minerals like calcium, iron, potassium, copper, magnesium, and phosphorus. Both the rind and the pulp contain phytochemical polyphenols and terpenes, specifically limonene, which gives the fruit its citrusy aroma. The volatile oils extracted from the peel are used in aromatherapy, skin products, and in perfumes.
Applications
Limes are best suited for fresh applications, and both the juice and zest can be used. Lime juice is a natural tenderizer for meats and is often used in marinades, particularly for ceviche, and can also be used over any dish as a finishing flavor. The juice is also used to flavor salsa and guacamole, doubling as an anti-browning agent for the avocado, used in vinegar, dressings, and sauces, and is commercially produced for limeade. The zest offers bright, citrusy flavors and is used in many of the same applications including baked goods, desserts, and beverages. In Malaysia, Limes are used for jams, jellies, and marmalade. They are also used in India preserved in syrups or pickled for use as a condiment. Limes may be sliced lengthwise or quartered and used as a garnish for cocktails. Limes pair well with meats such as poultry, turkey, beef, pork, and seafood, cauliflower, bell pepper, kale, onions, garlic, avocado, mango, coconut, quinoa, rice, black beans, and herbs such as cilantro, thyme, and oregano. The fruits will keep 1-2 weeks when stored at room temperature and 3-4 weeks when stored in a plastic bag in the crisper drawer of the refrigerator.
Ethnic/Cultural Info
Limes have been used for centuries by sailors and fishermen as prevention for scurvy, which is an illness that causes weakness, anemia, gum disease, and skin problems. The British navy first used the small fruits for prevention of the disease in the 19th century and often mixed it with water and rum to create a concoction for the sailors to consume. The use of limes was a heavily guarded secret in the British military for many years as it allowed the sailors to stay at sea for longer periods of time. This eventually led to the use of the nickname “limey,” which was used in a derogatory fashion by Americans and Australians to refer to British sailors. Today, it has a much less incendiary connotation.
Geography/History
Limes are native to Asia in an area described as the Indo-Malayan region, which stretches from India to Southeastern Asia, including the Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia, and have been growing since ancient times. The fruits were then believed to have been brought to North Africa and the Eastern Mediterranean region by Arabian traders in the 10th century and to the Western Mediterranean region by crusaders during the 11th and 12th centuries. On his second trip to the New World in 1493, Christopher Columbus brought Limes and the seeds of other citrus fruits to the West Indies. From there, Limes were planted throughout the Caribbean, Mexico, and Florida. Today Limes can be found growing throughout tropical and subtropical regions of the world and are highly cultivated in Mexico, India, Iran, China, Brazil, Argentina, Italy, Spain, and Turkey.
