Wholegood Organic Unwaxed Limes

Every purchase you make is a choice: the kind of agriculture you support, the impact on the environment, and the future of food. Wholegood sources organic produce from small and medium sized farms that care about the soil they grow in as much as the flavour it produces. It's not aesthetically perfect, exteriors can sometimes be blemished and shaped a bit wonky, but this does not compromise flavour.
Fragrant and packing a punch of flavour, our Organic Limes are juicy, pungent and wonderfully balanced in their sour and citrus notes. Unwaxed, they are great for zesting and baking, as well as cutting and squeezing straight into drinks and dishes alike. Their Organic nature means they can sometimes have imperfect skin, muddled colour and varied sizing, which in no way affects their taste and quality.
Our packaging reflects our commitment to the planet. Our netting is plastic free & home compostable - made with Beechwood recovered from the thinning of European FSC or PEFC certified forestry.
Good for you, good for the planet.

We enjoy prepping a simple lime pickle that requires minimal ingredients and time and mainly relies on salt and the lime’s juice for preservation and softening. Wash and dry your limes, cut them into eights. Place the lime wedges with peeled and chopped ginger root and green chillies in a jar in layers. Make sure to sprinkle adequate salt over each layer to ensure even distribution. Pour the juice of the extra lime into the jar and seal the lid tightly, leaving a little space at the top for movement. Shake the jar well to mix the contents thoroughly. Store the jar in a cool, dry place at room temperature, and make sure to shake it a few times a day to ensure all the lime pieces are coated by the salt to draw out the juices. The pickle will be ready to use in about 4 days. The flavour and texture keep maturing and mellowing over the following weeks as the salt and acid from the lime juice soften the rind over time. Once made, the salt acts as a preservative, so the pickle can be kept at room temperature, but it is safer to refrigerate it after the initial maturation.
