The optimal way to cut a lemon for a juicer depends on the type of juicer you're using. However, a common and effective method is to cut the lemon in half.
Here's a breakdown:
-
Cut in half: The simplest and most common method. Cut the lemon in half crosswise (from stem to blossom end). This works well for most standard citrus juicers.
-
Consider removing the pith (optional): If you are using a powerful juicer and don't mind a slightly more complex step, you can try to remove the pith from the lemons. The pith is the white part under the peel and it can add bitterness to the juice. To do this, cut away the peel and pith so you see some of the lemon fruit.
While the reference mentions a skewer method, this isn't directly related to cutting for a juicer. It seems more related to flavoring drinks with lemon.
