And voila! To keep lemons fresh for longer, this fruit needs moisture. By adding water, you can extend their shelf life.

More tips to keep lemons fresh for a long time, even for 3-4 months. Do it like this!

Once you have purchased the lemons, wrap each one in transparent cling film, covering the entire surface exposed to the air. Then store the lemons wrapped in cling film in an airtight container and place it in the refrigerator. This other method will keep the lemons for about a month, depending on the freshness of the lemons you buy.

If you want to keep them in optimal conditions for a longer period (more than a month), experts recommend putting them in the freezer, where they will last even about three to four months.

The first step to storing lemons in the freezer is to wash them and decide whether to freeze them whole, sliced, grated, or in their juice.
Once you have decided how to store the lemons, you can place them in the freezer in an airtight bag or container that can withstand low temperatures.
If you need to use the lemons, you can take them out of the freezer. Of course, to defrost them, you will need to soak them in cold water for ten minutes before using them.
You can use this technique to store lemons for a few months. Of course, their texture, freshness, and taste will not be the same as those that were just bought fresh. But it can still be a good compromise and avoid waste!
