How to choose fresh lemons
To buy fresh lemons that are not contaminated with chemicals, you need to pay attention to the following points:
- Choose lemons that are bright green, smooth-skinned, plump, and emit a light, pleasant fragrance.
- Fresh lemons that are juicy usually have a medium size, not too small and not too large, and feel heavy in hand.
- Do not choose lemons that are dark green, have rough skin, show many yellow spots, and emit a strong, unpleasant odor. These are old lemons or those that have been injected with chemicals, containing little juice and negatively affecting health.
