Heat lemons in microwave for 10-20 seconds and you will get more juice. Before squeezing lemons for the juice, spend the time to grate the zest. Store in the freezer and you will always have zest for adding to a risotto or sauce.
This recipe was not taken from the mentioned 'bible' - it is a very general recipe & one that i have used since my grandmother gave it to me over 25 years ago! The words to describe it are mine - not Stepanie Alexander's. Check your facts before you criticise someone - cheap! - 07 Feb 2010
