We are used to using lemon only in cooking. And then most people add this fruit only to tea, not knowing about its versatile use. Today I will tell you where lemon can come in handy and how best to use it.
A highlight in every dish
Lemon is able to diversify the taste of not only tea, but almost every dish. For convenience, you can place the washed lemon in the freezer for several hours. Then it should be grated on a coarse grater directly with the skin.
It is worth noting that lemon peel contains much more beneficial vitamins than its juice. Grated lemon does not spoil for a long time and retains its properties for several weeks. Store it in a cool place in a glass jar.
Grated lemon can be used in the preparation of soups, salads, drinks, meat and fish dishes. It brings exotic notes to an ordinary dish and makes its taste more interesting. At first I was skeptical about this method. But having tried it in practice, I became an ardent fan of grated lemon.
Now, without it, it is impossible to prepare soups, cereals and even coffee drinks. And this is not the whole list. In the future, I plan to experiment and add grated lemon to other dishes.
No fatigue!
Researchers in Japan have studied the health benefits of lemon in detail. As it turned out, the fruit is capable of easily overcome fatigue and drowsiness. To do this, you just need to cut the lemon into pieces or circles and put it next to you.
The strong smell of this fruit will keep you awake.
The enemy of bad smells
Thanks to lemon, even the most unpleasant odors can be eliminated. To do this, cut it into a couple of large slices and sprinkle them with a good handful of salt. Lemon should be put in a problem area for several hours. Bad smell will quickly disappear and will not bother you for a very long time.
Lemon with salt is able to effectively clean dirty surfaces. Scientists recommend that you regularly wipe the cutting boards with it.
Against stains and dirt
Lemon is the worst enemy of clothing stains. He is able to clean the thing even from old and difficult dirt.. You need to mix lemon juice with a little vodka and treat the stain with it.
It is worth waiting a couple of minutes for the product to take effect and erode the stain. Then you will need to wash the item with powder to get rid of the vodka smell.
