Charlottechicken Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I have just discovered this tip. Mum bought a large bowl of lemons from the market last week (for a pound!) and I used a couple to make a lemon cake. After two quickly went mouldy and had to be binned, I wanted to save the others for future use. I have sliced two up and frozen them, ideal for dropping a slice into a summer drink when you want a garnish and ice at the same time! Apparently, you can also remove the zest first and then slice them up, I will try this if I can't use the others up in time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Good idea for putting in drinks. I usually zest and juice them, then freeze that for using in baking or cooking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmashazzie Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 That's a rest tip .I zest ex lemon today and I usually leave it to shrivel up intending to use it. I sliced it and froze it and the frozen slices have been used already. DD had friends round so I popped it in their lemonade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmashazzie Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Err that should have read great tip. Needless to say I passed on the lemonade and had a nice glass of red! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
