2 Oz. Fresh Kaffir Lime Leaves-grown Organically, Natural with No Pesticides
Fresh kaffir Lime Leave: They are highly aromatic and highly sought after for Thai cooking. They can't, however, be replaced with limejuice. They add a distinctive citrus flavor to curries, soups, and sauces.
Kaffir lime leaves are precious to many Thai dishes, from soups and salads to curries and stir-fried dishes. They are the ingredients that blend marvelously with lemon grass and limejuice in Tom Yum (Thai Spicy Soup) to give the soup its wholesome lemony essence. In soupy dishes, add the leaves whole or torn into smaller pieces, using them as one would bay leaves to flavor broth or stew. For dishes in which they are a component to be eaten, such as salads, stir-fries and dry or custard like curries, cut them in very fine needle-like slivers, so that their strong bouquet can be more evenly distributed. The slivers also provide a pleasing texture and appearance.
To sliver kaffir lime leaves finely, stack three to four leaves of similar size together and slice them very thinly with a sharp knife. It is faster to cut diagonally, which gives the hands better leverage.
Kaffir lime leaves is also used as an indisputably effective cleanser, natural deodorizer and add a sparkling scent, like sweet bouquet of citrus blossoms, and each scratch of the zest releases another installment of refreshing perfume.
Keep them in a sealed plastic bag in the freezer.
