Zesty recipes, fresh home scents, cute citrus decor and more!
Lemon Love!
No kitchen is complete without the presence of zesty lemons: their vibrant color, refreshing scent, and perfect balance of tartness and sweetness make them a kitchen staple.
The king of citrus fruits adds a burst of fresh flavor to both sweet and savory dishes, enhancing everything from marinades and dressings to baked goods and beverages. But lemon’s usefulness doesn’t stop at cooking—lemons are also a natural preservative, a powerful cleaning agent, and even a handy tool for keeping fruits and vegetables fresh.
Here are five creative ways to make the most of lemons in your daily life:
- Culinary Star – I can’t think of a dish lemon doesn’t enhance – from sweet to savory! Use lemon juice and zest to enhance the flavor of dishes, from tangy salad dressings to refreshing desserts and marinades.
- Natural Cleaner – Lemons have antibacterial properties that make them perfect for cleaning. Use them to remove stains, freshen up cutting boards, or add to DIY cleaners to shine kitchen surfaces.
- Health Booster – A glass of warm lemon water in the morning can support digestion, boost vitamin C intake, and help with hydration. I also love a hot cup of warm water with fresh lemon and honey if I feel a cold coming on.
- Beauty Secret – Lemons can brighten skin, strengthen nails, and even be used as a natural acid exfoliator when mixed with sugar.
- Odor Eliminator – Keep your home smelling fresh by simmering lemon peels in water, deodorizing your fridge, or rubbing them on your hands after handling strong-smelling foods like garlic.
