The lemon is a vibrant, oval-shaped citrus fruit with a bright yellow, textured peel radiating zesty freshness. When sliced open, its translucent, juicy segments release an invigorating citrus aroma. The fruit is prized for its tangy, tart flavor that awakens the palate and is rich in vitamin C. Employed as a versatile kitchen staple, lemons bring a burst of sunshine to both sweet and savory dishes, elevate drinks, and serve as a garnish. Popularly used to make lemonade, enhance the flavor of fish, or add a zing to salad dressings, marinades, and baked goods, its acidic juice also acts as a natural preservative and brightening agent.

Leave these zesty nuggets on your counter at room temperature for just a few days (out of direct sunlight), or place in zip tight bag in the fridge crisper for up to 3-4 weeks. Make sure there is no moisture in the bag.
