How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh lemons
- Choose lemons with smooth, shiny skin that will have a higher vitamin content than others.
- You should select lemons that are bright green, have thin and fresh skin, and show no mold or yellow spots.
- Pick lemons that are of moderate size but heavy, as they will have more juice than those that are too large or too small.
- Avoid choosing lemons with yellow, shriveled skin, mold, or rot, and do not choose those that are too large or too small as they typically won’t be juicy.
