Pantry Staples ingredient guide
Lime Recipes
Lime is a bright, citrusy pantry staple that adds acidity, aroma, and freshness to both savory and sweet recipes. Its juice can balance rich foods, lift spicy dishes, and bring a clean finish to sauces, soups, salads, and grilled meats.
Use lime in recipes like fish tacos, guacamole, ceviche, coconut curry, cilantro-lime rice, marinades, vinaigrettes, key lime pie, and refreshing drinks. The zest is especially useful when you want bold lime flavor without adding extra liquid.
For the best flavor, add fresh lime juice near the end of cooking, while zest can be added earlier to infuse oils, batters, and sauces. Bottled lime juice is convenient, but fresh limes usually give recipes a brighter, more aromatic taste.
