How Do You Use A Lime Squeezer?
Freshly squeezed lemons or limes can add a fresh, delicious flavor to drinks and prepared dishes. By using a hand squeezer, you can eliminate much of the work and mess associated with squeezing limes and get the most juice from each fruit. You can purchase lime squeezers at specialty shops that sell cooking implements, some grocery stores or on your next trip to Mexico. Purchase fresh ripe limes or small lemons. Keep in mind the size of the squeezer. They come in multiple sizes so if you squeeze more lemons than limes, you might want to purchase the bigger one. Look for fruit that will fit comfortably in the diameter of the concave section of the squeezer. The more fragrant and soft the fruit, the more juice it gives. Wash and prepare the limes. Wash limes thoroughly to remove any pesticides or residue that can be transfered during the squeezing process. Place the limes on a cutting board and with a sharp knife, cut the limes in half. Insert the lime into the squeezer. You might think
