Clearance Lime Haul
Got a huge bag of limes in the produce re-wrap section yesterday! Maybe 30? I didn’t actually count and I had used a few before taking the first pic. I needed a couple for a recipe and found this haul at Bombay Central.
$1.99 for the whole bag here vs $0.50-0.99 each or $2.99 for a small bag with maybe 4 or 5. They were all in perfect shape too!
I scoured Reddit and online blogs for how to save them. I settled on juicing them and freezing the juice in ice cubes. I zested them first and will freeze the zest for later use.
I then boiled the rinds. It’s a little bitter (a little goes a long way) but I think it will make great marinades. Maybe add to pad Thai sauces, coconut lime, or mix a small amount with chicken broth to make cilantro lime rice.
Any other ideas?
I also tossed all the rinds in my compost.
