There is no such thing as having too many lemons. In the kitchen, lemons have additional uses. Take half a lemon and sprinkle the juice on a piece of baked fish to mask the odor of fish in the household. I love to eat Alaskan salmon, but I don’t like how my kitchen smells. Lemon juice rubbed on apple slices will keep them from browning.
Use lemon juice to flavor sauces for pasta. Add some lemon to your Alfredo sauce for a different taste. My mother loves the taste of lemon in most all of her food. Zest some lemon rind over vegetables like green beans and asparagus.
Now, I did say that the lemon has many uses around the house and that includes ones that don’t include eating them. If you just happen to find a lemon hanging around that you forgot about and you don’t want to take a chance on eating it, use it to clean up after yourself.
Lemons are a great way to freshen the entire household. They remove stains and less than pleasant odors from hands. Drop a lemon half into the garbage disposal to remove any unpleasant smells. Many cleaners contain that essence of lemon because it is such a powerful cleaner with a pleasant smell. Whether for eating or for cleaning, lemons are useful.
