Fresh Vegetable Calamansi
Calamansi is a small, citrus fruit that is commonly used in Filipino cuisine. It is native to Southeast Asia and is also known as Philippine lime or calamondin.
Calamansi is a rich source of vitamin C, which helps boost the immune system, and is also rich in antioxidants that help protect the body against free radical damage. It is often used in marinades, sauces, and dressings to add a tangy flavor to dishes.
In addition to its culinary uses, calamansi is also used in traditional medicine to treat a range of health conditions. It is believed to have anti-inflammatory properties and may help alleviate respiratory problems, digestive issues, and skin conditions.
Calamansi can be found in many Filipino markets and is also available in some specialty stores. It can be used in a variety of dishes, such as adobo, sinigang, and kinilaw, or can be squeezed and mixed with honey and hot water to make a refreshing and soothing drink.
