In the instructions for a particular dish, that is, in a recipe, you can often see that lemon juice is required for preparation.
The easiest option would be to buy ready-made juice in a bottle.
But it will be much healthier and at the same time tastier if you "extract" the juice from the lemon yourself. And we will tell you about three ways by which you can do this.
1. First, take the citrus fruit out of the refrigerator so that it warms up to room temperature, and then, pressing hard on the lemon, roll it on the table.
This way you can destroy the connective membranes and get much more liquid from the fruit.
All that remains is to cut the lemon into two halves and squeeze out the juice with your hands.
2. If you feel that your hands are not up to the task, and there is no juicer in the kitchen, take kitchen tongs - they are much more convenient to use.
3. The third option is suitable for those who need literally a few drops of lemon juice.
You need to pierce the sour fruit with a toothpick, and then press hard on the lemon.
Earlier we told you how to make borscht even tastier.
