Black Lime is a versatile ingredient with a famously savory and tart flavor. This spice comes from Guatemala, where the limes are sun-dried, then ground into an easy-to-use powder. A versatile ingredient common in Persian cooking, they have a savory, tart flavour that's great on roasted meat or vegetables, in stews and anywhere you'd use lime juice. It's also a good alternative to Makrut / lime leaves in southeast Asian dishes.

    Product was ok!

    Not my favorite spice, but it was ok. I probably won't buy it again.

    Sorry to hear you did not enjoy the Black Lime spice as much as I hoped, Deb!

    Perfect for a hint of lime flavour

    Love that I can keep this in my pantry and sprinkle on dishes for a finishing lime zest without the hassle of zesting an actual lime.

    Omg so true! You get a longer shelf life than with an actual lime and more control over how much zesty-ness you want added :) Super happy to hear you've been enjoying it!

    Great addition to my spices

    This has a great depth and acidity and is amazing in Mexican and Thai dishes. It’s like amchoor or sumac but has a distinctive lime flavor with a hint of smokiness. I do agree that it is mild.

    Such a unique spice blend - Burlap & Barrel never fails to amaze. And so true - it was practically made for those cuisines! Thanks for leaving us a review, Elektra!

    Mild flavour

    I do like having this spice on hand but the flavour is not astounding. It’s really a pretty one for finishing and I love the idea of it more than anything!

    Hi Rayna, thank you for leaving us a review! I find it goes great with anything you would use a squeeze of lemon for (for example, guac) so it might be useful to think of it in that way! But, I have also used it as a chicken rub, in soup, and it goes great with Middle Eastern dishes. :) Hope this helps!
