The worst mistake you can ever do is use just the juice of your lemon. By grinding your lemon, you can use every benefit it provides.
Cut off the ends of your frozen lemon, and grate it the same way as you do with your cheese.

Once you are done, store your grated lemon in a ziplock bag. Use it to add a citrus hint to your dishes. Lemons will not only “season” your dishes, but also pack them with nutrients. Lemons pull out the flavor of every ingredient you use.
