TL;DR
- Lemon juice is essential for adding acid to dishes, particularly in dressings.
- Frozen lemon juice in ice-cube trays provides a convenient way to add flavor throughout the week.
- Slow-cooking zested lemons with olive oil creates a mellow, slightly sweet confit for meats, vegetables, or fish.
- Adding whole zested lemons to roasting trays infuses meats and fish with juice.
- Sliced lemons can be layered with sugar to create a lemon syrup for cakes and other dishes, or with salt and oil to make salad ingredients.
