Fresh lemons

Cooking method

• How often lemons of different colors and sizes accumulate in our refrigerator, which lie, lie ... and you can safely throw it away, because they either dried up or deteriorated - it happens.
• You can, of course, cover them with sugar slices, or through a meat grinder.
• And if you don't want sugar, for a number of reasons. Yes, and citric acid itself is not well received by everyone.
• What to do?
• I began to freeze lemons in wedges, and lemon juice. stored in the freezer perfectly, and you will always have either juice (for example, for apples or avocados, hummus), or slices for marinade, or for oriental cuisine.
• Today I was processing lemons, I needed a lot of lemon zest. And what to do with the leftovers, where there is a lot of untouched juice, and in large quantities. And the lemons are huge, we can't eat so much)))
• COOKING PROCESS
• Lemon juice
• I cut the peeled lemons in half. ...
• 
• I squeezed the juice on a citrus attachment for a meat grinder
• 
• It turned out a good juice, sour!)) And a lot of seeds!))
• 
• I pour the juice into ice cube trays, put them on a baking sheet and put them in the freezer to freeze.
• 
• Lemon wedges
• I cut the lemons into rings or half rings (depending on their size) with a thickness of about 0.7 cm, I do not particularly cut the slicing.
• 
• And I put the rings in a container with a lid, in layers. I close the lid and put it in the freezer for storage.
• 
• In this box I already have a part of frozen lemons, today I added fresh ones to them))
• Now, on occasion, I will always have lemons available, either ready-made juice, or whole slices for the marinade.
•

Tanya! A very convenient and good method
But the last time I didn’t turn out very well, it’s ice ... it’s like a fibrous one, though I crushed the zest, maybe because of this? But the slices are just fine! I will try to vacuum in bags, I think it will work or ...?

Olga, and I dilute lemon juice with water when freezing, everything turns out great.

Tatyana, so I feel that somewhere I screwed up myself Thanks for the advice! I'll try right now .. juice is always needed: girl-yes: I have a lot in sous-vid .. in baked goods too.

Today I defrosted several pieces of lemon rings, they look great, and the juice did not leak out of them

And juice, you can always strain through a sieve if there are fibers there. I squeezed the juice, so there were already fibers after squeezing, so they freeze.

But if you try to freeze the juice in special plastic ice bags.
Yesterday, only my little niece and I did "ikspiriment", she really wanted to see how it works. Then I cut off as many cubes as needed and you're done.

if you try to freeze the juice in special plastic ice bags

There is no difference in what to freeze the juice, in what container.

The main thing is that later there was an opportunity to take a small piece of juice, of the desired size, volume And at the same time not to defrost a large portion for the sake of 1 tbsp. l. and then again freeze the rest of the juice, the quality of the juice may decrease, as well as its structure.

Thanks a lot, I will use it too. The stock is needed. Somehow I didn't think about it.

I didn't guess about the juice, but I myself, peeled lemons, stuff them into plastic bags and into the freezer, entirely.Then I cut off from them as much as necessary.
Thanks for the juice idea.
