Lemons
Look for lemons that are heavy for their size. Select medium to large size lemons, which are usually juicier than small lemons.
Store at room temperature up to 1 week. They will stay fresh longer if you put them in the fridge in a sealed plastic bag.
Wash lemons before cutting and remove the skin.
The zest (the yellow outer skin) is edible and packs tons of flavors. Remove it with a grater or peeler, taking care not to cut the bitter inner white skin, called the pith. |
