  • What to do with lemons?

    The lemon tree in my backyard has produced a **** load of lemons and I can only take so much lemonade. What else can I do with all these lemons? I've already pawned some off on neighbors and relatives but I still have some left over. What should I do with them?

    Make gremolata with their peel. Put on Osso Buco 30 minutes before it's done. Die of sheer bliss.

      lemonade for next year... at least this is what we would typically do with apples back home... if you get lots, do a weekend of making apple juice, store and enjoy for the rest of the year... it's effort, but it's worth it

        It uses thin sliced lemons rather than just lemon juice.

          Do you like fish? You could get rid of a few by squeezing 'em onto cod or whatever, I guess.

            lemons will keep for a couple of months so you can store some to use for cooking.

            if you don't want any more lemonade, make some preserves out of the rest (lemon jam, anyone).

                  Ohio Shaker Lemon Pie
                  Ingredients

                  * 2 lemons
                  * 1 3/4 cups sugar
                  * pie crust
                  * 4 large eggs
                  * 1/4 teaspoon salt

                  Preparation

                  In a large saucepan of boiling water blanch the lemons for 30 seconds, drain them, and rinse them under cold water. Trim the ends of the lemons, discarding them, and cut the lemons crosswise into paper-thin slices. In a bowl cover the lemon slices with the sugar and let the mixture stand, stirring once after 1 hour, for 8 hours or overnight.

                  Preheat the oven to 425°F. Roll out half the dough 1/8 inch thick on a lightly floured surface, fit it into a 9-inch (1-quart) pie plate, and trim the edge, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Remove the lemon slices from the sugar and arrange them in the shell. Add the eggs and salt to the sugar, whisk the mixture until it is combined well, and pour it over the lemon slices.

                  Roll out the remaining dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface, drape it over the filling, and trim it, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Fold the overhang under the bottom crust, pressing the edge to seal it, and crimp the edge decoratively. Cut slits in the crust with a sharp knife, forming steam vents, and bake the pie in the middle of the oven for 25 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 350°F. and bake the pie for 20 to 25 minutes more, or until the crust is golden. Let the pie cool on a rack and serve it warm at room temperature.

                    Slice them, dry them, hang them up as air fresheners.

                      Why do i think the entire purpose of this thread was so that i could be listed on the forum page right about the "SUCK IT, BEN" thread.

                              I noted that before I opened the thread:
