How to preserve lemons without mold and with all their aroma
whole lemon
Whole fruits, if purchased at the right point of ripeness, can be stored for about a week at room temperature. If we want to prolong its resistance, we can place it in the refrigerator, in a glass jar and in the fruit section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
cut lemon
When we cut a lemon and only use half of it, it is almost certain that the unused part will end up spoiling. To avoid this, cover it with transparent film, making sure that it adheres well to the cut part, so that it does not come into contact with the air. Another method is to place the pulp part at the bottom of a glass where we add a little water, also in this case it will last a few days in the refrigerator. Finally, we can cut the unused part into slices and freeze it by wrapping it in transparent film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So let’s try to grate what’s left, we’ll only make the effort once and then if we keep it well, we’ll find it ready. To do this, we spread the grated skin on a tray, put it all in the freezer for a few hours and then place it in a glass jar. This way, no blocks will form and we can only remove the amount we need.
