Limes are called here or Kasturi, but as a region there are those who call them Kalamansi oranges. Our mini garden has bloomed profusely and I can't wait to get my first pick.
The tree is thorny
Let's get to know the kasturi oranges, the kalamansi oranges (English: calamondin or calamansi; Malay: lime musk) are a type of citrus fruit that grows rapidly in Bengkulu, smells good, and has a sour taste when ripe, and bitter when it's still raw. has two types that are usually distinguished from the color of their skin, namely the type called in the scientific name (Latin) Citrofortunella microcarpa which is greenish yellow or like a gradation, there is a yellow part and in some places there is a green color, and the second, called Citrofortunella mitis usually has a striking yellow color. This orange has been found throughout Southeast Asia,
especially in the People's Republic of China and the Philippines. The kalamansi orange is found to be widely grown in the People's Republic of China, the Swatow region. The Chinese believe that the presence of kalamansi orange brings good luck to a house, so they also grow it at home.
In Indonesia, people often call it a yellow musk lime. We often use it as a fragrance for grilled fish or brewing for hot tea, it smells great when we drink it with hot tea.
I have included this first fruitful experience as part of the #gardenjurnal community and thank you for supporting me and I am very happy to be able to contribute to this group.
There are many benefits of kaffir lime lime, including:
In addition to mass-produced kalamansi oranges into syrup, other uses are easily found in various cooking presentations, namely used as a complement to dishes, as a refreshing sour taste enhancer. Calamansi orange can also be processed into cakes, sauces, jams, dried into a kind of tea, processed into various ingredients for cosmetic production and used for other household needs.
Calamansi orange juice (liquid) contains citric acid up to 5.5%, so it is often used as a dishwashing agent (removing the fishy smell) or other items that have a glossy surface, including being used as a component of hair washes. Besides being able to make hair shiny, lime juice can also prevent or keep the head from dandruff. In the Philippines, squeezing liquid from kalamansi is also made as a basic ingredient for cleaning clothes from stains and making deodorants for the body.
In the field of cosmetics, orange kalamansi is also used as a skin cleanser and acne prevention. The effect on the skin is also very favorable, which makes the skin more radiant or smooth.
Young musk citrus fruits are usually green and slowly turn yellow-orange as they ripen on the tree.
Regardless of the color of the skin, the juice will still taste very sour.
Kasturi oranges can also be processed into several dishes that have a delicious taste. Due to its very sour taste, it is almost impossible to just eat it.
One of the easiest is to make a drink. The trick, squeeze a few musk oranges, then add cold water or soda water.
We can also add a little sugar or honey as a sweetener.
Kasturi orange drink is perfect for quenching thirst on a hot day.
This orange can still be created and used in a variety of dishes and drinks.
In fact, using musk lime in some recipes with lemon or lime can change the recipe's unique flavor.
