Fresh Tips: When Life Gives You Lemons….

By: Wren Fair

Store them properly and keep them juicy!

I’ve been so dismayed recently to discover that seemingly fresh limes and lemons are both juice-less and lifeless when I finally fish them out of the fridge. I decided to do a little research and here’s what I’ve found:

Lemons and Limes are best stored in a  sealed plastic bag in your refrigerator! I always assumed that because of their thick skin I could leave them to their own devices in my crisper drawer. However, Lemons and Limes will dry out if left unwrapped in your fridge or on your kitchen counter.

Seal your lemons and limes in a ziplock bag and they will stay viable for up to a month!
