Greenfields Dried Lime

Dried Limes bring a burst of tangy depth and smoky citrus character to your cooking, a treasured ingredient across Middle Eastern kitchens where they are known as loomi.

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

These small, sun-dried limes are a pantry essential for adding complexity and balance to savoury dishes. Used whole, cracked, or ground, dried limes infuse broths, stews, and rice dishes with a rich citrus sharpness that is both sour and slightly bitter, lifting flavours in a way that fresh lime alone cannot. Popular in Persian, Iraqi and Gulf cuisines, they are valued for the unique earthy-sour aroma that develops during the drying process. Simply pierce and drop them into simmering soups, slow-cooked meats or fragrant rice pots, and let their distinctive tang transform the dish. For a modern twist, grind them into a powder and sprinkle over roasted vegetables, grilled seafood, or salads for a lively citrus kick.
