I just harvested my first Meyer Lemon. I have 10 left on my 3 foot tree that are still turning yellow, and I would like help with what I should do with all of these lemons. The challenge will be that most of the lemons will be ready to harvest at one time. What do I do with 10 lemons???? Help.
You can always make lemon preserves :)
ReplyDeleteJenny do you have a good recipe??
Deletetry this one: http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/meyer_lemon_marmalade/
DeleteLemon bars!! Emily Luchetti's recipe calls for 1 cup plus 2 tbl juice. You can also zest and juice them and freeze for later use. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks--very helpful!
DeleteAwesome, first person I have known to grown lemons. How old is the tree and how long did it take to produce lemons?
ReplyDeleteI purchased the tree last year from Four Seasons. It is 3 feet tall and probably a 2-3year old tree from the nursery when purchased. So it is now 3-4 years old.
DeleteBye the way, it stays indoors October-May and then I carry it outside where it sits on our patio the rest of the year. I had lemons in less than a year.
I take part in TWD-Baking with Julia. My first post was for a rewind, so I made the Lemon Loaf Cake in the book. And then I made the Lemon Curd recipe in the book too. Both were really good and I totally recommend. I actually toasted pieces of the loaf and put lemon curd on them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the suggestion!
