They last a while in the fridge. Don't store them at room temp and just enjoy them over the next month or two. Inspect them every now and then to pluck out and disgard anything ripening too fast or with mold.

I make lemonade, or garnish my iced tea. I usually tuck a wedge into most drinks. Combine with seltzer.

Zest it and juice it for good marinades for meat, or for pan sauces like for chicken or veal piccata. Squeeze it on top of pounded thin and lovingly breaded and fried chicken or pork schnitzel.
Avogolemono is a really easy to make greek soup that is mostly eggs and lemon.
I just made a bowl of tabloulleh on Sunday (cracked wheat and seasoning in the Near East box), but full of my own parsley, my lemon juice and zest, and chopped cucumber, tomato, peppers, onions, olives, feta.
I like lemon on a cast iron cooked dutch baby, and really it's not too dessertlike and sweet.

>>15508206
use as salad dressing

>>15508206
Cocktails

you could do a lemon garlic or pepper pasta plain or with chicken or shrimp which is easy to do. you could simply drop a slice into your water

Make Lemon Confit (Bruno Albouze has a recipe). Yes, it can go in desserts, but it's also great to add some sweetness and tartness and acidity to dishes.

Lemonaid? Seasoning like zest and squeeze for fish.

I think the juice is supposedly very healthy.

>>15508206
Just suck on them like a real man.

>>15508206
Get an electric citrus juicer, they're only $20-$30. I like to scan the bargain bin for big bags of lemons/limes for $1, take them home and juice them into ice cube trays. Any time you need fresh citrus Bob's yer uncle. Also good for fresh grapefruit juice when in season, or adding a bit of fresh clementine juice to some bottled grapefruit juice

lemon pigs

lovingly breaded.

go neck yourself

>>15508206
store lemons in refrigerator and buy sparkling water. juice lemons into sparkling water.

>>15508206
When life gives you Lemons you make Lemonade retard.

>>15508308
wrong season now its too late

>>15508381
This.

preserve them in salt, like moroccans do. savory lemon slices, great with meats, couscous etc. also, marmalade cause you can use that in dishes in small amounts to impart a sweet lemon flavor to a savory dish like lemon chicken. make ceviche with fresh fish and tons of lemon to curdle the proteins. grate and dry the rind, use as a dry spice.

>>15508206
I'd probably make limoncello.

>>15508206
i put lemon juice on all kinds of meat especially lamb

>t. greek

>>15508206
I squeeze lemon on almost everything. Love putting it in soups and on it nearly every meat. It spruces up a plain bowl of rice too. If I want something sweet I'll just dip some thin slices in sugar and eat them with some black tea.

>>15508206
Lemonade or you could even slice them up and put them into the water you drink to enhance it. Bake some fish on top of some lemon slices.

>>15508246
nice post. thanks

>>15508206
Lemon butter is the literal best toast spread known the humankind.

>>15508206
pasta ala olio, pasta limone are surprisingly good.

Squeeze on chicken and fish

>>15508206
Lemonade, chicken picante, or shrimp scampi

Lemonade if you just want to make then disappear. I do equal parts lemon and sugar, then dilute to taste.

i squeeze some over a bite of a burrito

throw em in the bin

preserve/ferment them

squeeze the juice out and use it to wash that oily/pimply face of yours

Any low sugar lemonades?

put slices in your double whiskey on the rocks.

Dressings, lemonade, juicing them, hummus

I use so many lemons when I cook. Pretty much anything that calls for white vinegar or apple cider vinegar will be better if you substitute a lemon. Obviously lemon juice is incredible with any seafood and with most salads. Lemon zest is also perfect if you want to add some brightness to a dish without adding too much acidity/liquid. Lemon zest to finish pasta, lemon zest to garnish bitter greens, lemon zest to brighten up yogurt with granola. You've got options.

I shove lemons up me arse, if that helps...

juice them and make whisky sours babyyyyy

peel them and eat the segments, orange-style

Look up that lemonade flaire recipe or whatever from FoodWishes. It's a godly tier lemonade

>>15508206
Confit them, squeeze out the juice, zest their skins and dry them out for later, lemon pasta

Throw a lemon party

>>15508206
Lemon's a seasoning: juice seasons pasta dishes or seafood and zest seasons most other meats.

>>15508277
Alright Stonewall Jackson

>>15508206
Add lemon to anything.
Anything. Even water.

>>15508206
I made a chickpea stew that I finished with lemon juice last wee. Lemon juice is just a great condiment to put on a lot of stuff. Great on fish, chicken, fried foods, etc. Mix it into yogurt sauce.

>>15511711
I like using vinegars in the early stages of cooking and then finish with lemon juice so you get that nice citrus flavor.

>>15508308
How do you force the snout into that shape?

>>15508206

When life gives you lemons, squeeze them back into life's eyes.
You could add a little lemon juice to meaty sauces and such to balance the acidity.

>>15511610
Honey or agave

Don't let the lemon stealing whores get your lemons.

>>15508206
make hummus, use the zest for things like tuna patties, lemonade obviously nigger

>>15508206
You should start the day with the juice of a whole lemon in a pint of water to help cleanse your liver. Also look up Jamie Oliver's lemon pickle recipe. Probably something you could make a lot of and store in a jar.

>>15508206
Make some tasty ass mead

>>15518951
Can't go wrong with ass mead

>>15508206
Chicken piccata.

You can use it in place of vinegar for salad dressings.

If all fails, squeeze the and freeze in ice cube trays. Then remove the cubes and keep them in a bag or container.

>>15508206

LEMON PARTY

>>15508206
a lot of fish recipes are a good with lemon
make a fresh salad dressing.
there's also a good amount of soups that use them in there. personal favorite is a tomato & lentil soup that has some in there

>>15508206
add some lemon juice to foods/meals that don't have much or any acid in them

Every juice I have always has a lemon or lime squeezed in.
Besides that, I juice them on top of salmon, broccollini, asparagus etc. Basically anything that you're getting a bit charred and salty will be nice with lemon.
Use it in marinades too.

Keep them in the crisper if you want them to last, but they can be a little difficult to juice if they're too cold.
