If you collect all the lost lemons in one “pile”, then any housewife will have a whole bucket of this “stuff”.

Instead of constantly throwing spoiled citrus fruits in the trash, try the easy method below.

Thanks to it, you won’t waste a drop of valuable juice or a slice of sour but healthy fruit.

All you need to do is cut the lemon into slices and place them in a plastic bag.

Don't forget to place a "backing" made of a cellophane bag or cling film between the layers.

Now the resulting “tower” of lemon pieces can be safely placed in the freezer – using this storage method, it will be convenient for you to take the required amount.

But you shouldn’t freeze the “butts” of the fruit – instead, cut them into pieces of any shape, then place them in a glass jar and sprinkle with sugar.

This preparation is useful for baking, tea or other drinks.
