The Right Way to Chop a Lemon for Maximum Juice.
Do you cut lemons the right way before squeezing them?
A lemon is cut lengthwise, not crosswise.
We all make this mistake, because it's more practical to catch a lemon cut in half crosswise.
However, a lemon cut lengthwise can deliver up to 3 times the juice.
How to do
1. Hold your lemon firmly upright.
2. Cut your lemon from top to bottom. Be careful, the knife must not slide on the lemon.
Results
There you go, you now know how to cut your lemon to have as much juice as possible :-)
Why it works
Why does a lemon squeeze better lengthwise? Because the exposed pulp area is larger, which makes it easier to squeeze.
And if you've squeezed too much juice, which you might end up with with this trick, here's how to store lemon juice properly.
