The persian lime is an oval-shaped fruit usually about 3 to 6 centimeters (1 2.4 inch.) in diameter, depending its caliber, with a vivid green rind which turns yellow when ripe and often with slightly nippled ends.
Is an annual herb in the family Apiaceae. It is also known as Chinese parsley, and in the United States the stems and leaves are usually called cilantro. All parts of the plant are edible, but the fresh leaves are the parts most traditionally used in cooking.
Most people perceive the taste of coriander leaves as a tart, lemon/lime taste.
