Tips about squeezing lemon juice
- Choose a lemon that feels heavy for its size, which usually indicates it has a lot of juice.
- Roll the lemon on the countertop, applying a bit of pressure with the palm of your hand. This helps to break down some of the fibers inside the lemon and makes it easier to juice.
- Using a sharp knife, slice the lemon in half crosswise, not from end to end. Then, you can either squeeze with your hands or a lemon squeezer.
- If you make a larger batch, you can store it in the fridge for several days.
