True Lime 10.6oz Shakers (1 shaker) (Original Version)

Taste just like limes

I first discovered this product in little packets. I started putting the lemon and lime on absolutely everything I eat. I still carry packets with me but it is so convenient to have this large shaker jar at home.

I absolutely love this stuff. The first time I used it, it was from a packet in a box. I liked it so much I bought the large shaker. Even though I use it frequently, there is enough product that the container lasted almost exactly a year.This is real lime juice that has been dehydrated to a smooth-flowing crystalline powder. Because it is real lime juice, it has a true lime taste. Some reviewers have objected to the addition of maltodextrin to the shaker version of this product when it's not in the packets. The packets are sealed and air-tight so you don't have a problem with moisture or humidity that could cause the True Lime to clump. However, in a shaker, because it's not air-tight, the True Lime could easily clump up in humid environments. Thus, maltodextrin is added to help keep it free-flowing. I appreciate its inclusion because we have a monsoon season in Arizona, when the humidity is high. However, if your True Lime powder cakes or clumps up badly regardless of the maltodextrin, you can simply add water and reconstitute it to a liquid of whatever strength you want.I love lime juice on my fish. I prefer using True Lime over fresh lime juice on battered fish because I can use as much lime as I want without the batter getting soggy.It's also handy for baking because you get all the flavor of fresh lime but without adding moisture to the recipe, which could throw off the balance of liquid and result in a disastrous change in the taste or texture of your dish.If you need fresh or frozen lime juice, try reconstituting the True Lime for a fresh lime flavor.

Works great. I’ve used it for making dressing (when I’m out of lemon or lime), in cocktails, water, etc. you can use this for anything and tastes like the real thing.

Great addition to dishes or drinks that need a little more tart flavor. Does not cake.

Much Better than the Packets. I've ordered the packets too so I could bring them with me but 1 out of 6 is a solid chunk, like the packet had moisture in it( I got 2 boxes of 500 packets, 1 lime and 1 lemon the lemon was even worse.). Get this instead of the packets.

Great to have in cannister and not waste all the individual packaging

It started with wanting lime flavor without having to buy limes that go bad if not used quickly. In iced tea, mostly, and guacamole. Then I started sprinkling it on other things; rice, tacos, chicken. Now hardly a day goes by that I don't add it to something. This is intense lime in granulated form, not a diluted or fake lime-flavoring. You get the full spectrum of real lime flavor because that's what it is; a burst of fresh citrus and the nose-tickling aroma and sensation of just-sliced lime. It dissolves almost instantly in everything, and the big shaker will last even a lime lover like me for months. The only reason for four stars is that the shaker top clogs and stays clogged despite repeated cleaning. I keep it in the fridge now and that helps. I hope you'll try it, so they'll keep selling it forever.
