Description

Black lemons, also known as dried Persian black limes or simply dried limes, are a staple of Middle Eastern and Persian cuisine, bringing deep, citrusy complexity to slow-cooked dishes.

These dried black limes are made from ripe, green limes, soaked in brine and left to dry under the intense Middle Eastern sun for an extended period, developing bold, musky and fermented notes.

A must-have in any Middle Eastern pantry, they are perfect for adding depth to stews, soups and tagines.

Other names for dried black limes include limoo amani and noomi basra.

Available for nationwide UK delivery, bringing authentic Persian lemons to your kitchen.
