4 HANDY LEMON KITCHEN HACKS: WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS

In this new blog we will be sharing some super handy kitchen hacks using lemons that have made our life easier in the kitchen.

Hack #1: Juice a lemon without a knife 
This first hack is a quick and messy free way to juice a lemon without having to cut it. First, roll the lemon then make a hole in it with a chopstick and then squeeze the juice out. So easy and no knife is required! 
                   

                   

Hack #2: Prevent browning of fruits
This next hack will prevent cut fruits, such as apple and avocado from browning. Just squeeze a bit of lemon juice onto the cut fruit, then store it in our Keep.me Fresh container to keep it fresher for longer.         
                   
       

Hack #3: Clean wooden chopping board
This hack is a quick and easy way to clean and disinfect wooden chopping boards. First, rinse a wooden chopping board, then sprinkle some salt on it and then scrub it with half a lemon. Leave it for a few minutes then rinse it off and let it dry completely. The salt will remove the stains and the lemon juice will disinfect and remove odours. 
                   
      

Hack #4: Deodorise the fridge
This last hack will keep your fridge smelling fresh and free of odours. When you have juiced a lemon, don’t toss the lemon skin out - instead put it in a bowl and place it in the fridge to get rid of odours. Once the lemon has dried out (in 3 to 4 days), it’s time to replace it with another one.
