"Lime Juice"
Ingredients
- 500 g water
- 30 g lime peel
- 20 g citric acid
- 10 g malic acid
- 9 g granulated sugar
Instructions
- Peel the limes with a vegetable peeler, trying to minimize pith.
- In a Ziploc back, add peels, sugar, acids, and salt, then remove as much air as possible. Agitating occasionally, let stand for 2-6 hours.
- Combine lime peel mixture and water (rinsing out the bag with the water) in a blender. Blend for 15-30 seconds, or until the peels are between a mince and a rough chop. Strain through cheesecloth.
Testing Notes
- ~4% citric acid, ~2% malic acid, ~1.7% sugar
