Lime Purée
A creamy and silky purée made with lime peels. It's an extremely versatile dish that can accompany everything from desserts such as chocolate cakes to savory dishes such as seafood and pork. We used limes here, but you can use the citrus of your choice! After you cook the peels, keep the syrup to use in cocktails, mocktails, and desserts.
