Description
Kaffir lime leaves are the leaves of the Kaffir lime tree, a citrus plant native to Southeast Asia. The leaves are dark green and glossy, with a unique shape that resembles two connected leaves. They are commonly used in Thai, Indonesian, and other Southeast Asian cuisines to add a citrusy and slightly bitter flavor to curries, soups, and other dishes. Kaffir lime leaves are also used in traditional medicine and in aromatherapy due to their purported health benefits and uplifting fragrance.
