I have a friend from Saudi Arabia that showed me a black paste made of dry limes and you mixed it with water and sugar and you get a wonderful lemonade, best ever! Can I make it with your powder recipe?
I only just learned of Black Lime yesterday as it was an ingredient in my new favorite beer. I will be making my own black limes as soon as good limes are available locally. I will try the oven method while the weather is still somewhat on the cold side and the sun method this Summer. Thank you for your video. Hello from Utah, USA.
Thank you so much!!! Today I have learnt how to make something *NEW* I have always been curious about how dried limes taste in food. Now I'm only a few steps away from discovering this. Ahsante.
Thank you, I live in Malaysia and love to cook Arabic cuisine, before this I had to buy black lime in some middle eastern grocery shops and it's pretty expensive since it was imported......
The reason why I put in boiled water is to blanch them to make them soft and remove bitterness and we put in ice cold water to stop from making them too soft its basically controlling the temperature
Im always looking for natural spices this looks great. Can I use lemons that already dried out ? And how long do they last (shelf life) or refrigerador?
To make tea Do we add boiling water to 1tsp black lime powder? Or first put in water until boils then simmer for 15mts means for black tea we have to make decoction? Or just infuse by pouring boiling water on 1tsp dry powder in a cup
Hi. Thank you, I'm going to try this. How do you store them and how long do they last? Also, when would you used dried lime rather than just fresh limes? Thank you so very much
I just store them in a plastic bag or container they last for a long time. There are specific middle eastern and Persian recipes that use these lemon but you can always experiment
@@aromaofzanzibar I tried your recipe. It is always sunny in my country (Malaysia 🇲🇾) so I decided to make black lime. I put them out in the sun. It took about 9 days to get the results. Now I have a dozen of black lime. I'm so happy... I'm so happy... I'm so happy... Thank you so much.
Thanks for the video under a wonderful banner. I was hunting for a long time to know the trick behind processing of black lemon. I tried following your instructions in the video, but sadly, the lemons I have used has shrinked but the color is still yellow. Any guess what went wrong?
Thank you for watching, if the colour is still yellow that means they need more sun sometimes it may take longer may be the lemons were too juicy so the liquid has to dehydrate.
@@aromaofzanzibar Thanks for your time replying my query. I'll try under the sun for few more days as you suggested. What intrigues me is that still the color is adamant to change. I'll keep you informed if I get to it. Good day and keep posting....
5 continuous days of strong sunlight . It has not even turned brown . Mostly mustard, with brownish tint . How long does it actually take to turn black ?? I am from India, so be assured about sun & temperature nowdays is 34°Centigrade .
Hello sister. I wanted to use dried lemon(black lemon) in one recipe. But m not able to find it in any store and also I don’t have that much time so that I can prepare some at home. As I’ve to use it for the next day I.e within the next 24 hours.. So can you please tell me a regular lime can’t be used instead of the dried one? Or not? Thanks a ton.
Hello dear, there's a difference in flavor and aromas with fresh and dried lemon , am not sure what kind of recipe you are using and what are you looking for but if its a stew or curry you can substitute but if its rice dish then you cannot, hope this helps
Sorry dear the video was too short I did not get a chance to explain that, these can be stored in air tight container kept in dry area and will last for a long time
The salt is here is really optional not a concentrated brine as such so you can use as much or as little as you want. I used 1 and 1/2 Tbl which is sufficient for what I needed it for.
Aroma of Zanzibar Thankyou for your quick response. Okay 3 hours. Because you said "3days "on your videos so I was wondering. Hehe but Thankyou. I've put my in the oven. I'll make the dish on Saturday ❤❤
