PERSIAN LIME PIE​

Method

Persian lime is the oval fruit 1.5 to 2.5 inches wide and 2 to 3 inches long, often with elongated or nippled ends, usually seedless or with few seeds; it is larger and has thicker skin than the key lime. However, it is usually picked and sold when green, the fruit is yellowish-green, or yellow when fully ripe. The fruit has a fragrant, spicy aroma and tart flavor, but the aroma and taste are less intense than lime.

Enjoy!
