Black lime is such a sour and earthy flavor. I am always surprised more people don't use it. I usually cut one in half and use one side in lentil soup, but goes well in all sorts of food.

Makes the GOAT brine for almost everything. You can use it to make great jerky and all kinds of cured meat.

Awesome flavor. Great for adding a more muted sourness than the sharp one from fresh lemon juice.
