Finger Limes - aka Citrus Caviar

Our Finger Lime bush has produced a bunch of fruit this season. The photo shows a recent haul and there is still more to pick.

Such a super little Australian fruit.  Lots of citrus zing and looks like caviar pearls. Awesome in mayonnaise to have with seafood.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citrus_australasica for more info.
Citrus caviar...a little dehydrated.

Try some. Grow some.

The Finger Lime bush can be kept in large pots, they don't need to grow very big to produce a lot of tasty fruit. Ours grows well in Melbourne.










*I'll update the pictures with better shots of a fresh Finger Lime's insides.
