Cooking Tips
🍋 Lemon
- Roll a lemon on the counter before juicing to get more juice out.
- Zest before juicing — it's much easier when the lemon is whole.
- A squeeze of lemon at the end brightens almost any savory dish.
Nutrition: Excellent source of vitamin C and citric acid. One lemon has about 17 calories.
Storage: Store at room temperature for 1 week, or refrigerate for up to 4 weeks.
🧈 Butter
- Use unsalted butter for cooking so you can control the salt level.
- Brown butter in a light-colored pan so you can see the color change.
- Clarified butter has a higher smoke point and won't burn as easily.
Nutrition: Source of vitamin A and healthy fats in moderation. One tablespoon has about 100 calories.
Storage: Refrigerate for up to 1 month, or freeze for up to 6 months.
