Cooking with Makrut Lime Leaves

Thanks to their bright citrus flavor, these lime leaves are a welcome addition to many Southeast Asian cuisines including curries, coconut-based dishes, basmati rice and fish entrees. The heat and moisture of cooking enables these leaves to impart their intense aroma and flavor in nearly any dish to which you add them.

Makrut lime leaves are especially wonderful paired with common Thai ingredients such as chillies, ginger and shallots. Similar to bay leaves, they should be removed from the dish prior to serving, and should not be eaten. Makrut lime leaves also work in desserts alongside flavors like coconut and cardamom. They can lend an enticing brightness to cocktail drinks as well.

Our Makrut lime leaves are non-GMO.
