    I didn?t know that citrus, except lemon of course, could serve to prepare such delicious dressings and more, I want to try them right now, but surely these fruits lose a lot of properties while being prepared in dressings, since they are not as fresh as should be, right?

    Oh my goodness, that lime salad dressing sounds SO tasty! I can’t believe I’ve never thought of anything like that myself. I love lemons, limes and tangerines so much that last year I bought these little indoor dwarf trees that apparently, within the second year, will start producing normal sized fruit. I’m so excited!
