There are several methods to getting the lemon ready to be squeezed:

1. Put heavy pressure on the lemon; roll around on countertop

or

2. Put in microwave for 10 seconds

Then, just slice in half (shortest distance across), remove any visible seeds, sqeeze over hand, letting juice slide through fingers, catching any remaining seeds, or just squeeze over a collander to catch seeds. (I really don't like lemon seeds, although some people don't mind them as much).

Voila. Lemon juice.

How do you use a lemon zester?

A zester (there are several types) is meant to remove just the bright colored thin layer on the outside of the lemon (or orange or lime) which is called the zest. Rub the lemon over the rough part of the zester a few times until you see the yellow being removed. Stop when you begin to see the white pith under the yellow. That part is bitter. Move to another spot on the lemon and continue until you have all the zest you needs.

How do you preserve lemon zest?

You fine grate the peel of a lemon by rubbing the lemon on the grater. You only want the peel. Lemon zest is simply the yellow part of the peel on the outside of the lemon. It has an intensely lemon flavour and is used to add flavour to many culinary dishes. To make lemon zest simply remove the yellow outer skin of the lemon with a grater or zester. Try to avoid taking off to much as the pith (the white part under the yellow skin) has a very bitter taste and can leave a dish with a bitter understate.
