Grown throughout Southeast Asia, the kalamansi is known by many names, including calamondin, calamansi, kalamunding, golden lime, Philippine lime, Panama orange, Chinese orange, musk orange and acid orange. As a hybrid of tangerine and kumquat, this small, round citrus has a unique flavor profile with notes of orange, lemon, grapefruit, pineapple, guava and even apricot. Think of it as the one-man band of tropical fruits, playing several tunes at once to the tastebuds! Crushed into a silky, smooth puree, it can be incorporated into many different recipes, often as a substitute for lime and other citruses:
- Key lime pie, tarts, ice creams, sorbets and other desserts.
- Filipino lemonade, mojito, daiquiri and many citrusy, tropical-style beverages.
- grilled tilapia, calamansi chicken and other savory Asian-style dishes.
