How to keep whole lemons fresh
If you purchased whole lemons in bulk and want to keep them fresh, store them in your refrigerator’s crisper drawer. “Fruits naturally ripen slower in the fridge as the cooler temperature slows everything down,” Natalie Alibrandi, food scientist and CEO of Nali Consulting, previously told Well+Good. When sealed in a plastic bag or container, lemons can stay fresh for about a month. Just be careful not to store them with produce that releases ethylene, such as apples and bananas, as it can hasten the lemons’ ripening process.
