dried limes
Dried limes, also known as limoo omani, are whole limes that have been dehydrated. They are commonly used in Middle Eastern and Persian cuisines, adding a unique sour flavor to dishes. The drying process intensifies their taste, making them a popular ingredient in stews, soups, and rice dishes.
These limes can be used whole or ground into a powder. When cooked, they release a tangy aroma and a citrusy flavor that enhances the overall taste of meals. Dried limes are also rich in vitamin C and can be found in specialty grocery stores or online.
