While preparing some food for a potluck, my mom called to ask if she could borrow my reamer.
Me: “I’m using mine, but, ya know, you can simply cut the lemon in half and stick a fork in it, twist and squeeze.”
Mom: “That’s great honey, thanks.”
He-he. I just told my mom to stick a fork in it.
That’s what I often do too. Another tip, in order to get the most juice out of the lemon, place it in the microwave for 10 seconds, or roll it on the counter applying a little pressure, that works well too
