Dried lime - yellow
Dried yellow lime, also known as "loomi", is a useful ingredient in Middle Eastern and Persian cuisine. It is a lime that has been dried and given a dark color, giving it an intense and concentrated flavor. It has a sour taste with a subtle smoky undertone that can be very characteristic.
Dried yellow lime is often used as a flavoring agent in various dishes and drinks. It can be added to stews, soups, rice dishes, marinades and sauces to provide a unique flavor profile. In addition, it is used to make tea, where it gives a distinct lemon flavor to the drink.
In the Middle East, dried yellow lime is also considered to have medicinal properties and is sometimes used to relieve stomach aches and digestive problems. This is traditionally used in folk medicine and has no scientific support.
It's important to note that dried yellow lime has a strong flavor, so it's best to use it sparingly at first and taste to get the desired intensity.
