Product Description

Steenbergs Lumi Powder is a classic ingredient of Middle Eastern cooking. Lumi Powder is a coarse, dark green powder. It tastes bittersweet.

Lumi powder comes from powdered Persian Black Limes, Citrus aurantifolia. Black limes are whole, sun-dried limes. These are 3 – 4 cm in diameter.

The limes are picked, then boiled in salt water, before being dried out in the sun. Black limes have a colour that ranges from a light tan colour through to a very dark brown, which is almost black, with around it 10 darker tan longitudinal stripes going from end to end. Inside broken black limes, there is a dark sticky pith that has a pungent citrus aroma.

Axel’s Tasting Notes: Citrus: sweet and pungent citrus flavours.

Food Pairing: Aubergines, courgettes, chicken, fish.
