Dried lemons are made from thinly sliced fresh lemons, dehydrated at low temperatures to lock in their vibrant citrus scent and zesty flavor. This process concentrates the natural nutrients without the need for artificial additives or added refined sugars.
Seasonality: Available year-round. While fresh lemons have peak harvest times, the drying process ensures a consistent supply of high-quality citrus all year long.
Flavor & Texture: Intensely citrusy, tangy, and slightly bitter (from the rind). The texture is usually firm and leathery, or crisp if freeze-dried.
Primary uses:
Tea & Infusions: Drop a slice into hot tea or cold "Infused Water" for a refreshing vitamin boost.
Garnishing: Enhances the look and aroma of cocktails, mocktails, and bakery items.
Cooking: Can be ground into powder for seasoning or added to Mediterranean-style stews.
Healthy Snack: For those who love a sour punch, it can be eaten directly to refresh the palate.
Benefits:
No Added Sugar: Contains only trace amounts of natural fruit sugars, making it a very low-calorie option.
High Vitamin C: Supports the immune system and aids skin collagen production.
Alkalizing Effect: Helps balance the body's pH levels and aids digestion.
Detoxification: Often used in "detox water" to help flush out toxins.
