Lemon
A squeeze of lemon lifts almost any savoury dish.
About it
Lemon does the job salt and fat usually do: it makes food taste brighter. Roll it on the bench before cutting and you get more juice. Vitamin C eaten with a meal helps the body absorb the iron in plant foods.
Ways to eat it
- Juice over lentil soup
- In tahini dressing
- Over chickpea salad
