Lemon Tips
When a recipe calls for zest and juice, zest first, then cut and squeeze for juice.
For measurement purposes, a medium-size lemon should yield one tablespoon of zest and two to three tablespoons of juice.
Save squeezed lemons at your sink — they're good for removing fishy, onion, and garlic smells from your hands.
Lemon juice is like a short-term preservative on certain foods that turn brown when cut, such as apples and avocados.
