Black lemon is created through a gentle maturation process under controlled humidity and temperature. During this process, the aroma of fresh lemons becomes concentrated and develops into an especially intense and layered flavour. This classic ingredient of Persian cuisine, known as loomi, is now also widely appreciated in many other Middle Eastern countries.
Its flavour is citrusy, aromatic, and pleasantly complex, with subtle sour and lightly smoky notes. Black lemon is ideal for enhancing roasts, stews, rice dishes, and sauces. Thanks to its fresh yet exotic character, it also pairs beautifully with baked goods, drinks, and many other creations.
