Here are two simple ways here to keep them around, year round, 1st simply freeze the juice pulp and all. I freeze 1/4 cup portions, be sure to freeze the juice in an air tight container, 2ndly and most used the zest, I have tried to freeze the peel but found freezing the zest is the way to go. Again I will portion before I freeze, another thing that is important is to blot the zest with a paper towel to get the moisture away from the freshly zested goodness. I will also make an envelope out of a portion of the paper towel and wrap the zest in this before placing in an air tight container and into the freezer. Be sure to do enough to keep you in the Meyer Goodness year round as they are the King (or Queen) of the lemons.
I am away for the next week or so but will be posting from time to time so check back, until we meet again be safe and start zesting!!
