Kaji Nemu (কাজী নেমু) — Assam's State Fruit Lemon

Kaji Nemu has a sharper aroma and a juicier bite than lemons found elsewhere, which is exactly why it earned a Geographical Indication tag and, eventually, the title of Assam's State Fruit.

A few drops go into fish curry, lifting the whole dish with its distinct aroma and taste. It's squeezed over dal, folded into chutneys, and used whole in pickles. For anyone who grew up in Assam, a glass of chilled Kaji Nemu sherbet on a hot summer afternoon is a memory that never fades.

GI-tagged, indigenous Assam variety. No preservatives.

Best for: Fish curry, chutneys, pickles, lemon water, everyday cooking
Pack: As per listed weight
