The first method is the ice cube method. This original but really effective tip prevents you from wasting your lemons and preserves their freshness for a long time.
Take your lemons, grate the zest and squeeze out the juice. Put everything in the ice cube molds. All you have to do is place them in the freezer. Once frozen, remove them from the molds, place them in an insulated silicone bag and return them to the freezer. You can take them out anytime and use them for any occasion.
With toothpicks
The second method involves the use of toothpicks. Often we tend to cut the lemon in half and use only a part, while the other half is put back in the refrigerator. But the mistake that almost everyone makes is to keep this half open. It inevitably loses its freshness and nutritional properties. Smart tip: use toothpicks to insert them between one half of the lemon and the other to cover it. This keeps it fresh and ready to use for several days!

If you only need to store half a lemon, place the cut half upside down in a saucer filled with water to preserve the flesh.
