Description
Frozen Kaffir Lime Leaves - 100 g
Kaffir lime leaves, botanically known as Citrus hystrix DC., are a central ingredient in Southeast Asian cuisine, particularly used in Thai cooking. The leaves come from the kaffir lime tree and are characterized by their distinctive double-lobed structure and an intense, aromatic scent with clear citrus notes. The product consists exclusively of frozen kaffir lime leaves without additives, making it a pure and natural spice. In cooking, the leaves are typically added to the dish during preparation to impart flavour and aroma, much like bay leaves are used in European cuisine. The leaves are not usually eaten, but removed before serving. The fresh, slightly tart taste with lemony notes provides a good balance to dishes with coconut milk, and they also work well in soups, stews, and marinades. The texture is firm and smooth, and the leaves retain their aromatic properties well when frozen. The product is packed in a convenient tray with a net weight of 100 grams and should be stored frozen at a maximum of -18 °C. Once the packaging is opened, the contents should be stored in the refrigerator and used within five days. The product can be thawed in a microwave oven but is not intended for cooking therein. Frozen kaffir lime leaves are suitable for home cooks and food enthusiasts who wish to prepare authentic Asian dishes such as tom kha, green curry, and other traditional Southeast Asian specialties. The product is gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian, and contains no known allergens. It is an excellent choice for those seeking fresh frozen Asian herbs, frozen lime leaves for cooking, or authentic Thai ingredients for everyday dishes.
