Sarah@sortius@infosec.exchange @skinnylatte@hachyderm.io I'd like to file a complaint about the name, in quite a few languages citron is lemon and English citron is something else
mossman@xgebi@hachyderm.io @sortius@infosec.exchange @skinnylatte@hachyderm.io uhhh... what is citron in English then? I only know it as lemon. (I am English origin and lived 15 years in Netherlands (citroen) and 9 in France (citron).)
mossman@xgebi@hachyderm.io @sortius@infosec.exchange @skinnylatte@hachyderm.io or are you thinking of a lime (citron vert)?

I have heard of cedrat in France, I also spend a lot of time in South East Asia where I enjoy the preserved rind of "Bhudda's hand" ... also a type of cedrat.
Yet in all my years in all my countries of residence, I have never seen those referred to as citron!
(just suprised, not disputing it)
mossman@sortius@infosec.exchange @xgebi@hachyderm.io @skinnylatte@hachyderm.io okay, I just pulled out the current jar of preserved Bhudda's hand rind and the stuck-on translation of the Chinese label has "fingered citron" on the ingredients. I live and learn...
sortius :Fire_Bisexual:@mossman@social.vivaldi.net @xgebi@hachyderm.io @skinnylatte@hachyderm.io yeh, I grew up in places like Cambodia, so citron was used a lot in meals.
Abalone steamed with citron is sublime. It's closer in flavour to lemongrass than lemon, very delicate, kind of like a makrut lime's flesh
