Title: Lime Pickle
Post by: loveitspicy on July 09, 2012, 11:55 AM
Right Guys Ive had a ganders through the site an cannot find a Lime Pickle recipe

Does anyone have a tried recipe PLEASE!

The last time I had some if i remember correctly it was very bitter and salty......

I'm on a quest - just bought 5 kilos of limes for 50 baht just over a quid - they are small just right for pickle.

best, Rich

Hi Rich,

I found a website that does traditional Indian recipes and provides free e-books for whoever wants them, and there is about 15 books in all.

If you join there website you can download all for free...

http://www.indian-cooking.info/index.htm (http://www.indian-cooking.info/index.htm)

In particular one of the books which concentrates on pickles and chutney's has a recipe for hot lime pickle. I have not had chance to try it yet, but you may want to give it a go, although the salt content is a bit alarming...  :-\

Hot Lime Pickle

Ingredients
Limes

I would be inclined to stick to the recipe the first time, Rich : in my experience, it is always best to stick to the spec. when making something for the first time, and then adjust later batches in the light of experience.
