Whole lime pickle is a tangy and spicy Indian condiment made with whole limes, spices, and oil. The limes are pickled in a mixture of salt, turmeric, and chili powder, which gives them a vibrant yellow color and a zesty flavor. This pickle is a popular accompaniment to Indian meals and adds a burst of flavor to rice, curries, and sandwiches. It can be stored in a sterilized jar for several months and the flavors will continue to develop over time.
