Steve uses lime leaves (the dried ones) for Thai curries.  We have some in the cupboard now!

thats what i use them for as well... i keep them in the freezer.


More details please! Do you just put them in whole? Most of the recipes I have that call for them grind them in with the curry paste, and I was skeptical of using dried leaves for that.

I use them to make a tofu/veggie version of Tom Kha Gai, very tasty!
Could I get the recipe, pretty please? :)

Yes, just like you would use bay leaves.  Then pluck them out of the finished product (or off your plate or whatever) rather than eating them, at the end.

Elynor, here is one of the recipes I use.  http://www.northernthailand.com/cm/recipes/thai-recipes/Tomkhagai.html

I use only 3 tbs of fish sauce and I didn't put mint in it.  Tofu and mixed veg in place of the chicken breast.  And light coconut milk.

 :)

I wish that all these yummy Thai recipes didn't use fish paste.  :\\\'(

One of my cookbooks has a recipe for a veggie substitute. I haven't tried it yet, but I can post it for you when I get home. I think it's mostly soy sauce.
