How to Cut Lime Wedges

  1. Initial Cut: Cut the lime down the middle but not quite in half, leaving the core intact.
    • This ensures the segments remain connected and makes for easier handling.
  2. Halve the First Cut: Take the piece you just cut and then cut it in half again, so that now you have 2 wedges.
  3. Repeat: Grab the other side of the lime and follow the same process.

These wedges are perfect for squeezing lime juice over dishes or adding to beverages.
