What about lemon chicken, fried lemon slices, lemon meringue pie, lemon bars, unsweetened lemon water (a simple pleasure), baklava syrup and the chicken avgolemono (egg-lemon) soup we made for Greek Easter.
Perhaps the best thing about lemons is how lovely they look while waiting to be sliced or juiced. It's like bringing a touch of sunshine indoors. Post Impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh, a master of color and light, called yellow "a color capable of charming God", elevating the humble yellow lemon to something ethereal and appealing to the senses.
The very fragrant lemon trees were starting to blossom in March even before the final fruit was picked. By the time we return to Phoenix this winter, there will be hundreds more. Hmmm, maybe I should spend the summer searching for recipes...a tablespoon here, a twist there, slice and grate.
