Low FODMAP
Lime Curd
Safe in normal portions. Unlikely to trigger symptoms.
Lime curd simmers lime juice, eggs, sugar, and butter into a thick and tart tropical filling. Pure ingredients remain low in fermentable carbohydrates when verified free of hidden additives or artificial thickeners. Commercial preparations occasionally add wheat starch or high-fructose corn syrup to improve consistency and extend shelf life. Those managing ITS should measure usage strictly and pair with fats to slow intestinal transit. Substituting with glucose-dominant syrups improves overall digestive tolerance.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes
Prepare curd using fresh lime juice, brown rice syrup, and unsalted butter for controlled carbohydrate density and smooth consistency. Avoid heating directly over high flame to prevent curdling and maintain uniform glossy texture. Store in an airtight container and chill thoroughly before use to preserve firm consistency and prevent separation.
