This lime is popularly known as the King of lime in West Bengal. Also Gondhoraj Lemon called the kaffir lime, makrut or Mauritius papeda is a citrus fruit native to tropical Asia, including India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines. This lemon with a very little amount of juice is extremely popular in the eastern part of India. The popularity comes from a strong but pleasant fragrance this lemon exudes when cut sections are squeezed. The fragrant juice and pulp are primarily mixed with rice. There is a belief in Ayurvedic medicine that a cup of hot water with lemon juice in it every morning tonifies and purifies the liver. Lemon juice, rind, and zest are used in a wide variety of food and drink. It is used to make lemonade, soft drinks, and cocktails. It is used in marinades for fish. Lemons also make a good short-term preservative, commonly used on sliced apples. This keeps the fruit crisp and white for about a day, preventing the unappetizing browning effect of oxidization. This helps to prolong the usage of the fruit. In India, the lemon is used in Indian traditional medicines Siddha Medicine and Ayurveda.
