Lemon Juice
Fresh lemon juice provides a clean acidity that balances fats and enhances the natural flavors of other ingredients. Unlike bottled alternatives, it contains aromatic oils that add depth to dressings and sauces. Beyond seasoning, it prevents oxidation in cut produce and serves as a natural tenderizer for proteins, making it a functional staple for both savory and sweet dishes.
