Juicing Limes & Lemons- Hack

Juicing Limes & Lemons

Two ways to get maximum juice out of citrus fruit

1: Roll the fruit on a hard surface, pressing down with the palm of your hand back and forth. This breaks down the membranes inside and releases the juice.

2: Pierce the skin of the fruit with a sharp knife once or twice, then put the fruit in the microwave and heat it on high power for 10–15 seconds. Piercing the skin prevents the fruit exploding as the juice expands under the heat and the brief microwaving warms up the fruit just enough to help loosen the juice.
