We had a lovely harvest of kaffir lime leaves last month before taking our plants indoors for the winter. Usually, we sell our fresh, hand-picked, organically grown crop (aka makrut lime leaves) directly to local New Seasons grocery stores. However, this year we tried something different. To make the leaves last longer, we dehydrated them, ground them into powder, and packed them in spice jars. We are selling the 0.5 ounce jars for $10 each. Quantity is very limited. See For Sale page to order. Kaffir lime leaves are a key ingredient in Southeast Asian dishes such as curries and soups. But fresh leaves are not always available throughout the year. That's why it's nice to have some powdered leaves on hand. Renowned cooking school teacher and cookbook author Patricia Wells even uses the fragrant citrus flavor of kaffir lime leaf powder to perk up oils , noodle dishes, roasted nuts, and even ice cream! Check our Tasty Tips Blog for our newly posted Tom Kha Gai (Thai coconut milk soup) recipe that uses kaffir lime leaves as well as our previously posted recipes Thai Green Curry Paste for Fish and Indonesian Sambal Tauco.
