Buying lemons in July

How to pick: Heavy with fine-grained, glossy skin. Thick knobbly skin means less juice.
Ripening at home: Citrus does not ripen after picking. Buy it ready.
How to store: In a sealed bag in the fridge they last a month. On the counter, about a week.
Try this: Squeeze over roast vegetables or fish just before serving.

Seasons are typical harvest months. Your local harvest can start or end a few weeks either side, and stores carry imports outside these months.
