Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 lime medium-sized
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon cumin ground
  • teaspoon oregano dried
  • teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Thoroughly wash and dry the limes, then zest them.
  2. Sprinkle the zest onto wax paper or parchment paper, then cover loosely with a paper towel. Let sit at room temperature until completely dry (about 1 day).
  3. Add chili powder, cumin, oregano and salt to a mortar.
  4. Add the dried lime zest (you should have about 1 teaspoon), then grind everything with a pestle until well combined.
  5. Store in an airtight container at room temperature until ready to use.

Notes

  • *One medium-sized lime will yield a little more than 1 teaspoon of fresh lime zest. This will be a little more than ½ teaspoon when dried.
