“Lemons are rich in antioxidants, protein, vitamins B and C, and they have antibacterial, antiviral, and immune-boosting properties. However, like other fruits, lemons are seasonal. As a result, we can't find them all year round. That's why, when it's lemon season, we preserve them. This way, we can maintain the aroma and freshness of lemons for our recipes. We can store oranges in the same way. I haven't tried this method for limes, but I think it would work too." ~ Chrysoula, a Cookpad community member from Rhodes, Greece.

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Select good lemons, wash and clean them, then dry them thoroughly.

  2. 2

    Freeze lemon slices. Slice unpeeled lemons into 1/4-inch thick slices, then cut the slices in half. Store in a food-safe bag and place in the freezer. We can use them for tea, drinks, food, and syrups.

  3. 3

    Freeze Lemon Zest. Grate the lemon peel finely using a grater. Place in a small container and store in the freezer. We can use it as zest in cakes, creams, and other desserts.

  4. 4

    Freeze lemon juice. Squeeze the lemons whose peels have been zested. Pour the juice into an ice cube tray. Once frozen, remove and place in a food bag. We can use the juice when cooking or whenever we need it.

  5. 5

    Testimonial from Nafsika, our community manager in Greece: Lemons are widely used in everyday traditional dishes and desserts. Lemons are often used to add aroma to sweet desserts like Baklava, galaktompoureko, and cakes.
