Sooooo

What would you make?

I've already planned a lemon yogurt cake and was thinking of making some lemon curd, I've only made a small batch before, how long can you keep curd?

Any suggestions appreciated!! Especially if they're freezable

Lemon slice mmmmmm..................then bring some over here!

My mum makes bottle of lemon cordial with her excess lemons. By all accounts it's delicious!

Juice, then pour into ice cube trays, once frozen, remove from tray and place into ziplock bags. Keep in freezer and use as required. Perfect for adding to glasses of water on stinking hot days...

Slice sounds good!! Do you a good recipe? I promise I'll send some your way

Great idea! Can they be thawed and used for anything? Cakes etc?

Jars of preserved lemons?

I think so, I personally haven't done it but my In-laws did last year when our lemon tree over-fruited. I personally can't see it being a problem, the cubes would just de-frost back to a liquid....

LOL food by mail !!

I usually use the recipe by Taste: Lemon Slice

BTW there is a recipe in the ad's on the side of the page for lemon and ricotta muffiins, could be worth a go?

preserved lemons
slice and freeze
juice and squeeze
give them away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When life hands you lemons, make lemonade...

Sorry, couldn't resist!

DP and I often have the same problem with our lemon tree! I just made a lemon tart - delicious!

I was thinking of making a lemon tart, or meringue pie!

Anyone know how long lemon curd keeps for? Is it freezable?

Inthe fridge it keeps a reasonable length of time, months rather than weeks. In sterilised jars it would keep even longer.

Lemoncello - basically its vodka + lots of lemon zest. Leave it for a a few months then remove the zest.

Thanks! So if its just in tupperware a couple of weeks is fine?



Now you're talking

Lemon gelati!! Freezes well too...

DH loves Vodka, lime juice and soda water. Once my lime tree takes off I'll do this :0




OP what about lemon jam?

The first thing that comes to mind is lemonade. Though I know you're really asking for something not lemonade haha.

Lemon icebox pie:

graham crackers as crust
500g cheesecake, softened
1 can of sweetened condensed milk
zest and juice of 3 lemons

Beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add the condensed milk, zest and juice and mix until smooth.

Pour mixture into crust and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving. Optional: add whip cream before serving.

Easy, huh.

I feel your pain. We also have too many lemons. But luckily I need to make a lemon cheesecake for the weekend, which I will make using one of the recipes provided on my post.

I always have lots of lemons and usually juice some and freeze in ice cube trays as mentioned, give lots away, make lemon muffins or cake, I don't make preserved lemons becuase I dont like them but I know other who do.

I will try to lemon ricotta muffins listed on the side of this as well. Good luck
