Kaffir lime
A small citrus with bumpy skin and an intensely fragrant zest.
Kaffir lime is a small green citrus fruit with very bumpy skin. Its juice is scarce, but its zest gives off a powerful fragrance, both lemony and slightly floral. It is grated over fish, a dessert or a tartare, and goes into curry pastes and rougails.
