Lemon Recipes Roundup

Well hello, Lemon-Lovers! Today I’m celebrating the fact that it is officially spring! I am so excited I can hardly even stand it! Warm-weather eats and citrus-y treats are starting to call my name! So I’ve gathered a bunch of totally mouthwatering sweet recipes featuring all things LEMON for this roundup! Lemon is one of my favorite ingredients to use when I am cooking because you can use it in sweet and savory recipes. I have included all of those in this lemon roundup! You will find desserts, breakfast foods, dinner entrees, and everything else in between. Because lemon adds in such a unique flavor to a dish, whether it’s a strong flavor or subtle, you don’t want to leave the lemon out! Once you look through this roundup then I know that you will definitely find a recipe that you call a keeper. In fact, I think the hardest part will be picking just which one is your favorite!

Measurements: 1 medium-sized lemon equals about 1 tablespoon of lemon zest and 2-3 tablespoons of lemon juice. How to Pick a Lemon: Find a lemon that is heavy for its size. A lemon should have a fine grain texture and a bright yellow color. If it has any green streaks on it then this usually means that it is more acidic. Room Temperature Lemons: If you leave your lemons out at room temperature before you cook or bake with them, then they will yield more juice than ones that have been in the fridge! Lemon Zest: If your recipe from this lemon roundup calls for lemon zest then you can either use a lemon zest tool or a grater. Make sure that you are just getting the outer layer of the peel. Once you get beneath that top layer, the white pith is bitter and you don’t want that coming off with your zest.
