Highlights
Finger Limes, also known as Caviar Limes, are a fruit native to Australia. They are a citrus fruit with a taste that is mixed with sour and sweet. Each fruit is filled with citrus pearls that look amazingly like caviar. Because of the appearance, they are also sometimes called Vegan Caviar. These pearls can be added to a variety of dishes to add crunch and texture from savory seafood dishes to sweet delicacies.
Food Uses:
Finger limes are best suited for both raw and cooked applications, but they are showcased when used as a garnish or raw addition. The pulp can be gently squeezed from the skin and garnished over tacos, grain bowls, tofu, green salads, fruit salads, or sprinkled over sliced avocado or melons with sea salt and served as a snack. The pulp also compliments seafood such as grilled salmon, oyster shooters, seared scallops, sushi, nigiri, and ceviche. In addition to savory dishes, Finger limes can be incorporated into marmalades and desserts including cheesecake, ice cream, cookies, cakes, and cream puffs.
