I just got home, and someone in my house painted lime sulfur paint very messily all over my fruit trees. The paint is just spilled on other trees in random blotches as well. If the paint was put on only a few hours ago, is there anything I could use to take the paint off without damaging the bark underneath ?
It's amazing how many people answered this question incorrectly. (This should be called Yahoo Guesses!) If citrus was added to chips, the ingredient would be be lime juice or powdered lime or some such. Trace of lime refers to the residues of the alkaline solution (water + calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2) the corn is soaked and/or cooked in.
A pich of lime is added to the spices and when applied for large quantities of the chips and evaluated you find traces of lime. In simple words add a pinch of salt to a bucket full(about 30 liters) of water and when a glass of this water is checked they will fins traces of salt, like this.
TRACE of lime...means: little bit of lime small amount of lime pinch of lime hint of lime anyone of these could be used to tell the reader there is a very tiny bit of lime in the tortilla chips! I'm thinking that it might be applied when the chips are hot from the oven or fryer....that is usually when the spices are added. Now I want some! Mama Jazzy Geri
Lime, the fruit. Lime is used a lot in mexican cooking. Tortilla chips would be in that category. It is on a lot of dishes besides chips. It enhances the taste, that is why they use on a trace... The taste could be overpowering if used in excess. It's used in some salsa's, guacamole, pozole(a pork and hominy soup), marinade for meat, Lime Margaritas, etc. Cilantro is usually in most recipes with lime too.
In this instance, Lime refers to hydrated lime that the corn kernels are soaked in to slough off their initial hides or skins...... The hydrated lime and the skins are then rinsed away from the corn kernels and the kernels are then ready to be processed in to a variety of forms..... In your case, Tortilla Chips are then made from the roasted, stone ground (milling process) of the corn to make it malleable for forming into a paste that will then be transformed into tortilla chips.......Now, do you have the salsa and guacamole to go with those chips, and I'll bring the Margaritas!!!!
