🔪 Preparing Fresh Juicy Zesty Limes

Limes require almost no preparation.

  1. Wash thoroughly under cool running water.
  2. Pat dry.
  3. Slice in half for juicing.
  4. Cut into wedges or rounds for drinks and garnishes.
  5. For zest, finely grate only the green outer layer.
  6. Avoid grating deeply into the white pith, which can taste bitter.
  7. Remove seeds where necessary.

🍈 Fruit Bowl Tip

Before cutting, gently roll the Lime backwards and forwards on your worktop using the palm of your hand.

This can help soften the fruit and make it easier to squeeze.

If you’re using the zest, wash and dry the skin thoroughly first.
