I’m obsessed with lemons, I wake up to squeezed lemon water every day because I’m convinced it stops me from getting ill. It is a stomach acid balancer. Interesting that lemon are acidic outside of the body, when inside they become alkaline. So I have plenty of board cleaning material.
I love the Nutri-Bullet! It is a powerful kitchen tool that, when I prepare citrus fruits for juicing, allows me to slice off just enough of the rind so as to leave all of the thick white pith. This ipart of the fruit is packed with nutritious elements, flavinoids and d-limonene, not normally capitalised on, but with the Nutri-Bullet can be blitzed with ease, into a delicious, full of everything, morning juice, without a problem.
Extra uses:
The skin can be used for zesting and used in rice dishes, lemon sorbet and salad dressings to name but three
In my teens I used lemon juice in my hair to lightening and streak – I’m sure it worked.
My boys love lemon drizzle cake, and of course homemade lemonade with too much sugar.
But what can be done with the pips? Any ideas?
