Lime Peel Powder

Explorer’s Recommendation

Our lime peel powder is made of both the exocarp and albedo of the peel, also known as the zest and the pith. Some may find the pith (white part) to be overbearing and overwhelm the zest. Lime peel powder is good for adding bitterness to recipes, increasing volume to hair products, as a household cleaner, a facial scrub, skin scrub and more functions. It is also great for oral health and hygiene. Alchemists discovered its acid properties in Medieval times and used it to make soap. The essential oils in lime peel are a preferred ingredient in candle making and are believed to repel mosquitos. Make your own potpourri powder.
