It did wonder to my sore throat when I consume it by adding hot water and honey. Thanks a lot for this recipe.<br /><br />A friend from Ipoh said some senior people in Ipoh kept their preserved limes for over 10 years and they are treasured as medicine for healing sore throat.J.C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10904882913688765735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12790784.post-81816450158833934552010-03-17T21:35:30.786-06:002010-03-17T21:35:30.786-06:00Do we remove the seeds and at which stage?
