Lemon is a citrus fruit rich in antioxidants that can be used to season dishes or to add an acidic note to desserts. Like all other fruits, lemons can rot after a certain period of time. In fact, it is difficult to maintain them for long. They may become dull, wrinkled, and some parts may become soft. If your lemons look like this, it means they have lost their freshness and juice. Discover how to keep your lemons in good condition for up to 3 months with this trick.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To enjoy the benefits of lemon,   it should be consumed fresh. Like all fruits, this citrus rots quickly. On the other hand, certain gestures will allow you to preserve your lemons for up to 3 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’s the trick to keeping lemons fresh for up to 3 months?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

To keep a lemon fresh and juicy for up to 3 months, place it in a bowl of cold water in the refrigerator. The water helps   tighten the lemon skin<\/strong>   and preserve its juice, for up to 3 months, as long   as you change the water regularly. In this way, the lemons will retain all their freshness.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other tips for successfully storing lemons?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you intend to use the lemons only a few days after purchasing them, you can   store them at room temperature <\/strong>  and protect them from light. They can stay fresh   for up to a week. <\/strong>  On the other hand, if you don’t intend to use them quickly, it’s best to store them in airtight containers, or in zip-top freezer bags, making sure   to remove as much air as possible. <\/strong>  Then store them in the refrigerator, ideally at a temperature between 4 to 10\u00b0C. So you can store your lemons and preserve their flavor and juice for up to a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have cut lemons, you should know that you can also save them. Simply cover the cut part with stretch film to protect it from air   and prevent oxidation   <\/strong>and store it in the refrigerator. <\/strong>  This will keep your lemons cut for a long time. However, it is advisable to consume lemons, preferably 2 or 3 days after cutting them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note that lemon does not freeze. On the other hand,   you can freeze the juice or peel. <\/strong>  In fact, it is possible to fill the ice cube tray with lemon juice   to keep it cool. <\/strong>  When the juice cubes freeze, remove them and store them in a freezer bag that you will place in the freezer. As for the lemon zest,   take it out with a grater   and place it in an airtight freezer bag  and store it in the freezer<\/strong>  .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to these simple gestures, you will be able to keep your lemons fresh for at least a month, as well as their juice and zest. This way you will benefit from the benefits of this citrus that provides an acidic flavor to dishes   and also perfumes the house.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
