Lemons are the unsung heroes of our kitchens. Their vibrant zest and tangy juice not only enhance the flavor of countless dishes but also offer a burst of freshness that can brighten even the dullest meal. I vividly recall my grandmother’s kitchen, where lemons were always in abundance. They were used to add a splash of flavor to her famous lemon bars, and she even had a special recipe for homemade lemonade. Unfortunately, despite their versatility, lemons have a tendency to spoil quickly, which can be quite frustrating. Over the years, I’ve discovered several effective methods to prolong their shelf life and prevent them from rotting. Here are four foolproof techniques that will help you keep your lemons fresh and ready for use.
