How do you cut a lemon to eat?

Published in Cooking & Food Prep 1 min read

To cut a lemon for eating, typically you'll want to cut it into wedges. Here's how:

  1. Cut the lemon lengthwise in half. Place the lemon on its side and slice it down the middle.

  2. Cut each half lengthwise again. Take each half and place it cut-side down on the cutting board for stability. Then, slice each half lengthwise down the middle.

  3. Consider further dividing if needed. Depending on the desired size of the wedges, you can slice each quarter lengthwise again to create smaller wedges.
