Fingerlime | (Citrus australasica)

Australian limes are revered as some of the finest amongst the world. Fingerlime, also known as caviar lime, is certainly no exception.

To extract the pearls, defrost the fruit, cut the lime in half and squeeze like a tube. Rinse before use.

  • Seafood: Finger Limes pair excellently with seafood. Sprinkle the caviar-like beads on oysters, smoked salmon, or grilled fish for a burst of citrus flavour.

    Salads: Add Finger Lime pearls to salads to give them a zesty and visually appealing touch. They work particularly well in green salads or fruit salads.

    Sushi: Use Finger Limes to top sushi rolls, sashimi, or nigiri. The tartness of the lime complements the flavours of the sushi.
